DSC in Pattaya
On November 27th, 2014, the fabulous Dutch Swing College Band performed a free concert in Pattaya at CentralFestival at the mall's beachfront sunken amphitheater.
The concert was made possible by Performing Arts Fund NL.
The Dutch Swing College Band (DSC) started out as an amateur-college combo on WWII Liberation Day (5 May, 1945).
In 1960, the DSC turned professional.
Through the years it has grown into a world famous jazz ensemble that has toured all five continents to much acclaim.
From the very beginning the most striking characteristic of the band has always been its unique and recognisable sound. In other words, no recordings of American virtuosos were ever copied: the Dutch Swing College Band created their own interpretations, arrangements or compositions.
Bob Kaper heads the current line-up, in succession to Frans Vink Jr (1945-1946), Joop Schrier (1955-1960) and Peter Schilperoort (1946-1955 and 1960-1990).
