Yes, (in 1956 (?) and again) in 1957. I quote from the New York Times of July 8, 1957: "... the spotlight was stolen from the many well-known jazz musicians on the program by... the Farmingdale (L.I.) High School dance band. This group of teenagers tackled complex big-band arrangements, generally in the Count Basie & Woody Herman vein, and played ythem with the drive and assurance of an experienced group of professionals."
