“Leroy Anderson has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He was described by John Williams as ‘one of the great American masters of light orchestral music’. Sleigh Ride is quoted as ‘performed & recorded by a wider range of musical artists than any other piece in the history of western music’; Blue Tango also reached No.1 in Billboard and was the first purely orchestral piece to sell a million.” (Iain Sutherland)
