There’ll be dancing under the stars when Les Brown Jr. strikes up his big, 15-piece band in a special, outdoor ballroom at the Titanic Museum Attraction in Branson, Missouri on Friday, September 22 from 7p.m. to 11 p.m. This one-night only music and dance celebration includes a 90-minute grand tour of Titanic and is specially priced at $40.00.
One of America’s great dance bands, the Band of Renown and host/singer, Les Brown Jr. carry on the tradition of class, professionalism and fun that father Les Brown Sr. started more than six decades ago. His music defined an era just as the music played by Wallace Hartley and his Titanic Orchestra defined theirs.
“Music is a universal language,” says Mary Kellogg Joslyn co-owner of the Titanic Museum Attraction and producer of the special “Music of Our Times” event. “It could take us on a “Sentimental Journey” in 1942 or remind us “It’s a Long Way to Tipperary in 1912. Music can mark a place in time or recall a moment or event like nothing else. Music from the World War II years and beyond will get the big-band treatment in our special tribute…it’s all danceable, singable and enjoyable.”
As they exit the Museum Attraction, guests will step away from their 1912 experience and walk outside onto a dance floor for a romantic 1940’s evening under the stars with Les Brown Jr. and his Band of Renown.
