Interesting replies. Many of my listeners are in their 80's...some in their 90's.

At age 68, the music I listened to started in 1960...even some in late 1950's. Many of my listeners started listening in the late 1940's and WWII ballads still go over well.

I still throw in waltzes and polkas as folks will dance(if they can) to those.

I've yet to get a teenager(student or grandkid) interested in messing around with an arranger. Perhaps with time?
