Started on liberation day (May 5) 1945 as an amateur/student combo, the Dutch Swing College Band has grown into a worldwide known jazz ensemble. It is also the longest existing old style jazz band in the Netherlands.

The group arose from a plan by clarinetist Peter Schilperoort and pianist Frans Vink to set up a school for young jazz musicians. Initially, the band of this Dutch Swing College played jazz from the thirties, but leader Schilperoort focused more and more on older jazz styles such as New Orleans and Dixieland. After his death in 1990, it was thanks to the efforts of the new leader Bob Kaper that the group continued to exist.

Back in the original line-up of seven men, including four wind players, they give shape to the Dixieland, boogie woogies, stomps and blues songs with their own musical approach.Translate By Google
