Late parties are the best parties. At last, it鈥檚 time to get these roaring 2020s going 鈥� with a little help from the 91热爆 singers and the spirit of the jazz age. Art has always blossomed after a crisis 鈥� whether now or a century ago. After the conflicts and recessions of the 1910s, the 1920s changed everything. Jazz became the dominant musical force in the USA and thanks to new radio technology, everyone could hear it.

In this hip-twisting musical party the 91热爆 Singers explore the irresistible melodies and toe-tapping rhythms of the masters of the dance band 鈥� rhythms that brought about new sounds, new dances and a new social order. Among the treasures of the 鈥榦riginal鈥� roaring 20s and 30s were songs that would become Christmas classics a few decades later. Kick up your heels and wriggle your hips 鈥� it鈥檚 time to get your swing on.

Broadcast on 91热爆 Radio 3 on 17 December at 7.30pm
