Your Hit Parade - 1948
In 1948 only a few of the remaining big bands played progressive jazz, and one of them was Woody Herman's famous Second Herd, which her formed after disbanding his First Herd in 1946. Drawing on progressive young arrangers like Ralph Burns and Neal Hefti, Herman placed the band on the cutting edge of the bebop movement. His ear for gifted musicians uncovered such innovative bop instrumentalists as trombonist Bill Harris and saxophonists Stan Getz and Zoot Sims. Herman's version of Sabre Dance, based on the Gayane Ballet Suite by Khachaturian, intermingled the traditional theme of the composition with jazz interludes. \n
