Glenn Miller and his the rest of his Orchestra. Renowned for their music and visual fun in their performance, less renowned with what key their pieces are in.

"Rapture in sadness. A grimacing key of choking back tears. It is capable of a laugh or smile to pacify those around, but the truth is in despair. Fullness of tone, sonority, and euphony."

The description doesn't match my opinions on this key at all. It is bright, joyous, and much like A♭ major, was used frequently in older jazz standards, like Glenn Miller's piece "Little Brown Jug"
