Billy May and Roy Conniff
Graham's special guests this week are music legends Billy May and Ray Conniff
More swinging performances from across the years and around the world featuring the finest crooners, songbirds, small groups, big bands, orchestras and instrumentalists as Graham celebrates the show’s 200th edition!
We’ll meet two more witnesses to musical history from Graham’s personal archive, both of whom would have reached their 100’th birthdays this week…
In part one; composer, arranger, trumpeter and bandleader Billy May who was born on November the 10th 1916.
And in part 2; composer, arranger, trombonist and bandleader Ray Conniff who was born on November the 6th 1916;
And Graham’s musical theme this week is “Happiness!â€
