(CBS Sunday Nights, 1949 - 1955; CBS Daytime, 1957) ["Fred Waring and his Pennsylvanians" were the most famous chorus on radio having been heard on various shows since the 1920s, his chorus was featured on this series in the early days of TV; What Lawrence Welk did for dance band music, Fred Waring did for Choral Music (at least for a time)... Choral singing is often associated with churches...but this group of both male and female singers had wide appeal singing secular songs and a few hymns from time to time; For five seasons at the dawn of network television the show was seen on Sunday Nights; In 1957 it made a brief return as a Summer replacement daytime series from Warings retreat, an estate at Shawnee-On-The-Hudson]
