| مستخلص: | ABSTRACTThis article focuses on a group of young jazz enthusiasts who, under Nazi rule, formed a jazz band known as the Frankfurt Hot Club. Although the group had some connections with the Swing Youth movement, it regarded jazz as far more than a simple means of having fun. During the Second World War, those enthusiasts tuned in to foreign radio stations to listen to jazz, collected records, distributed music news sheets, recorded pieces in various places and performed music live. As a result, they jeopardised their freedom and even their lives, for the Nazi regime was taking steps to outlaw jazz, among them penalties as severe as internment in concentration camps. The question is, then, whether such risk taking was worthwhile. |
