Jazz, Big Band, swing -- these are American musical art forms that are neither dead nor diminished, certainly not among devoted fans and not among a younger generation which appreciates them. Dan Gabel is a young man who not only appreciates this music, but perpetuates it. He is a musician, arranger, and the leader of a splendid variety of musical groups that are a tribute not only to his musical talent and appreciation, but his entrepreneurial spirit. One of his idols is Vaughn Monroe, and that's good enough for me. I hope in future to write more on Dan Gabel's the Abeltones and his High Society Orchestra, but for now, have a look at his Facebook page, his website, and start marking your calendars for his upcoming events.
