100 Jahre Weintraubs Syncopators

In August 1924, exactly 100 years ago, a dance band was founded in Berlin-Charlottenburg, which soon became one of the most successful jazz bands of the Weimar Republic under the name Weintraub's Syncopators. In addition to their versatility and versatility, their special qualities also included their comedic talent. The Weintraubs also appeared in films such as “The Blue Angel”. The band had to leave Germany in 1933 because of its predominantly Jewish members. A long odyssey began, which led all the way to Australia. In this anniversary concert, members of the Babylon Orchestra Berlin will perform specially reconstructed original songs from the band's repertoire. Author Albrecht Dümling and two of Weintraub's descendants will take part in the discussion, which will be moderated by Wolfgang Jansen.
