A Song is Born – Carlings 1991

The Carlings have taken their lead from the 1948 movie “A Song is Born” with Danny Kaye, Louis Armstrong, Tommy Dorsey and many other stars.
Gunhild sings the tune in a medium tempo, they than almost double it and the first solo is on trombone by 19 year old sister Gerd, who plays a Tommy Dorsey slow melody solo emphasizing the high pitched middle part. 16 year old Gunhild comes in with a hot trumpet solo also having no problems with the high pitched middle, brother Max follows in a Edmund Hall manner. After dad’s piano solo while the frontline kids are all smiling happily they close out with a final ensemble in a way Louis and his All Stars could have done.The band finishes with a spectacular ending which must have taken a lot of rehearsal time, and then they have to go to school again like nothing happened. How is it possible!
Other band members mam Aina on banjo and brother Ulf (12) drums.
