Andrej Hermlin and the Swing Dance Orchestra have dedicated themselves to the music of the golden 20s and 30s. Dressed in appropriate suits and without any electronic tricks, their concerts exude the charm and glamour of times past: from the birth of swing music in Harlem and American Christmas tunes to the classics of Duke Ellington and Glenn Miller. Andrej Hermlin has fulfilled a long-held dream and recreates one of the great moments of jazz history: together with his Swing Dance Orchestra he plays exactly the concert with which jazz icon Benny Goodman took Carnegie Hall by storm in 1938.
