In page Glenn Miller:

"

Discouraged, Miller returned to New York City. He realized that he needed to develop a unique sound and decided to make the clarinet play a melodic line with a tenor saxophone holding the same note, while three other saxophones harmonized within a single octave. George T. Simon discovered a saxophonist named Wilbur Schwartz. Miller hired Schwartz, but had him play lead clarinet instead of the saxophone. According to Simon, "Willie's tone and way of playing provided a fullness and richness so distinctive that none of the later Miller imitators could ever accurately reproduce the Miller sound."[1] With this new sound combination, Miller found a way to differentiate his band's style from those of many bands that existed in the late 1930s.[citation needed]
