Swing-Heinis, Zazous und Schlurfs

Swing as a counter-culture? Follow Jörg Meyerhoff back in time to the wild days of swing!

How did the boys and girls used to dance a hundred years ago? What were the hottest clubs? Can swing dancing be a political statement? Learn, how jazz spilled over to Europe and how the first young people discovered swing for themselves.

After the lecture Jörg Meyerhof answers your questions and we would like to discuss with you what swing music and dance culture means nowadays.
