The Arden-Ohman Orchestra was an American jazz ensemble active during the 1920s and 1930s, led by bandleaders Victor Arden and Phil Ohman. Beyond their studio recordings, which included the popular number "I Love a Parade," the orchestra gained prominence as the pit band for several significant Broadway productions of the era, including Lady, Be Good, Tip-Toes, and Spring Is Here. Their work bridged the worlds of Broadway theater and jazz recording, establishing them as influential musicians of the Jazz Age.
