I afton dans
"Tonight Dance" "Shall we go out and jazz it?". From the beginning, modern dance was synonymous with jazz. Musicians and orchestras were white, therefore the black background of jazz was almost completely unknown. In Sweden, the Swedish Paramount Orchestra (1926-31) became our first real jazz orchestra.
