 :I've removed this sentence until someone can verify and clarify: ""Always an innovator, Waring created the first band to feature female singers, and was the first to combine an orchestra and a glee club."" I'm not sure exactly what this is supposed to say. No females had ever sung with any sort of musical ensemble before him? Now I'm not 100% sure of the differences between a glee club and a choir, but Waring was certainly by no means the first to include a choir with an orchestra. If there is any truth to either of these staements they should be clarified and reinserted, but I don't see how there can be. - "
