There is a real problem coming up with a good name for a band like this.
"Stage Band" was a euphemism to start with and is hopelessly dated. "Big
Band" leads the listener to think Glen Miller's music will figure
prominently, and in my opinion should only ever be used to refer to
dance music from that era.
It should be noted, however, that the name of the ensemble fronted by
Glen Miller was the "Glen Miller Orchestra".
As was Duke Ellington's group.
