  Accordion Master Class
  by Glenn Miller
  Arr.:  Achim Graf / Peter Welte

  Glenn Miller (1904-1944) was an American jazz trombonist, band leader, composer and arranger. Glenn Miller was a perfectionist in terms of arrangements that he wrote or co-wrote. He was a gifted businessman. His band was a band organized like a company. The musicians insured and the stagehands employed, a model that many bands later followed.
  
  After Paris was liberated by the Allies in 1944, the Army Air Force Orchestra under the direction of Miller was to perform there at the Olympia in December. It is believed that the plane with which he was traveling to France on December 15, 1944, was accidentally hit by bombs from British planes over the English Channel due to thick fog and crashed. The wreck of the civilian machine has not yet been found.
  
  The report that Miller was missing over the canal was announced on Christmas Eve 1944 and received with great horror and great sympathy. His work was filmed in the film "The Glenn Miller Story" with James Stewart in the leading role in 1953/54 and became a worldwide success.
  
  The two arrangers Achim Graf and Peter Welte stuck to the original as much as possible and did not neglect the needs of a good accordionist.
