Me too - I also like Glen Miller. My father's great loves were Strauss and Jazz. Used to go round the house whistling the Radetzky March and Dark Town Strutters Ball. Apparently he used to play in a band when they lived in London. Had a banjo that I was forbidden to touch but he did let me try the mandolin but my fingers couldn't cope with the double strings. I still think of him every New Year's Day....and I love Strauss too. My middle name is Rosamunde, after Shubert's overture.
