The Legend - During World War 2, the Nazis banned jazz music in the Netherlands. Several youngsters wanted to preserve this music against all odds, so practiced secretly copying illegal radio broadcasts, determined to found a school for jazz music when the war was over: the Swing College.
On Liberation Day, May 5th 1945, the Orchestra of the Dutch Swing College had its first public performance. Their members gave lectures, organised jazz meetings and started to teach jazz music. The name soon changed into Dutch Swing College Band. In 1960 the DSCB (leading the field in traditional jazz in the Netherlands) became professional, and still performs successfully worldwide to this day.
