Haapsalu\u2019s auditorium was the night\u2019s hotspot! The busy evening was spiced up with an energetic concert by the six-member\u00a0band Swing A La Django from Hungary. The public was welcomed with an elegant cosy dark room, with a slight the vintage touch, only a very few empty seats left when the concert started.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The band was on stage dressed in casual black, white suspenders and shiny shoes with black-white pattern. The atmosphere became even more classical and we could travel back in time and swing a long.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Swing A La Django was created by P\u00e1l Lombos in Autumn 2014. Here, in Estonia, they presented mainly their new album ‘Swing City – Virtuosity of Swing’ (2018). Band\u2019s music is characterized as strong and with rhythmical grooves, blending Hungarian gypsy, swing, tango and jazz. The songs were lead by the rhythmical guitar and bass, followed by solos of violin, clarinet, accordion and cymbalom. From note to note, there was a fast and intricate loop, a messy speed and limitless innovation of acoustic presentations and rhythmical decorations.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This concert was a great opportunity to escape from busy contemporary life and you could fantasize about lindy hop and swing era of the late 1920s to early 1940s. This is what we all need from time to time.<\/p>\n
