Roy and Ed's Dance Music??

[binaryalchemist]

For the final scene in Chapter 14 I had to find a piece of music that would suit the mood just right. Granted, this was roughly in the late teens, early 1920's in Amestris---Jazz at that time was a bit more syncopated. I decided to take the liberty and use something from a later era--"Moonlight Serenade"

My parents were both jazz and swing lovers--my mom's favorites were Glenn Miller and Benny Goodman. "Moonlight Serenade" is one of Miller's most famous songs--a slow, dreamy instrumental perfect for a slow dance.

For the curious--here it is...and imagine a dark juke joint lit up only by the glow of a vintage jukebox....

I LOVE this piece. And now, part of me will always call those two to mind when I hear it.

Me too--and imagine the rainbow lights of an old Wurlizer jukebox, flicking in the darkness--Ed's hair catching the lights....mmmmm....Thank you, Glenn Miller!!
