Big Band Arrangements Collection 1990–2017

The Big Band Arrangements Collection documents the arranging and performance career of Raymond J. (James) Greco (1921–2003), leader of the Ray Vincent Orchestra. The Ray Vincent Orchestra performed widely in the southwest Pennsylvania area, as well as in West Virginia. The band was dedicated to recreating the Glenn Miller sound, and the arrangements reflect Greco’s skill in adapting standard tunes to this style. Greco passed away in Weston, Florida, in 2003.
