In the movie "Sun Valley Serenade" the Beneke-Klink solos are completely
different from the record.

As you know, Zeke Zarchy 92, is about the last living original member of the

Glenn Miller Army Air Force Band.

I asked him about the "In The Mood" sax solos on the recording and if after

Hi Bob

the saxes  usually--played the same solos. The
audiences expected that and sang along - with the band
most of the time.

Clyde Hurley  played the original solo . Tex Beneke
and A L  Klink
played the two tenor sax parts .  Yes, they played
the parts like the records .  I hope that answers
your Questions
Best. Zeke
