Click here to hear an 80-minute demo: MIKE HENEBRY ORCHESTRA DEMO You can browse the other pages while the demo plays or you can turn it off any time you want to. If you want to sample any of our recordings (see "Recordings") the samples will override the demo. The MIKE HENEBRY ORCHESTRA is a SWING ERA BIG BAND from the Southern California area (Orange County). They play the music of, basically, the years 1935-1948. In their incredible library of over 1900 charts, they have authentic arrangements from all of the major bands of the period: Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Artie Shaw, Duke Ellington, Harry James, Woody Herman, etc. Many of the Arrangements are the Real McCoy! For example, over 300 of the Benny Goodman arrangements came from the actual Benny Goodman library. Many of the Artie Shaw charts were acquired directly from Mr. Shaw himself! In these cases, these are the "actual" arrangements used to make the famous hit recordings (not a facsimile or an approximation like most bands play). When you put top-caliber musicians behind the "actual" music, you get a sound that is nearly identical to the original! The band recreates the sound of the bands that gave us what is generally considered to be the very best of the American popular music to date. Everybody still loves the music… In The Mood, Moonlight Serenade, Let’s Dance, Marie, I’m Getting Sentimental Over You, Flat Foot Floogie, Tuxedo Junction, Begin The Beguine, A String Of Pearls, Boogie Woogie, Woodchoppers Ball, Little Brown Jug, Sing, Sing, Sing… The MHO has been playing dances, weddings, concerts-in-the-parks, reunions, festivals, anniversaries and parties in many of the cities in Southern California over the years, and they always get a great reception. The MIKE HENEBRY ORCHESTRA is a guaranteed hit!
