Nueva York (Estados Unidos): Routledge, 2013, p. 101-111 9780203127032 https://uvadoc.uva.es/handle/10324/52692 Jazz appeared in Spain almost at the same time as it did in the United Kingdom, France, and Germany, usually considered its main centers in Europe. The first musical “jazz” performances in Spain, as described by contemporary papers, took place in Madrid and Barcelona between late 1919 and early 1920. The term was soon linked to dances such as the one-step, the ragtime, and the foxtrot, which had appeared in Spain before jazz reached the country. The spread of jazz in Spain was initially modest, especially in terms of its social base: its first listeners were mainly aristocrats and intellectuals. However, from the mid-1920s, jazz was leaking extensively into musical theatre and cinema, helped by the enthusiastic reception of the charleston and the success of Sam Wooding’s, Josephine Baker’s, and Jack Hylton’s performances. Jazz’s spread continued during the Second Republic (1931–1936), mainly in Barcelona, where the large and exclusive Hot Club was founded in May 1935. This association edited a prestigious Jazz Magazine and managed to bring Benny Carter’s big band and the Quintette du Hot Club de France to Barcelona in January 1936. It was also a model for the creation of further small clubs in other Catalan towns, in Madrid and Valencia. But the military revolt in July 1936 and the Civil War violently dislocated Spanish social and cultural life. General Francisco Franco’s victory in 1939 established a dictatorship that would survive almost forty years. This chapter analyzes the relationship between jazz and Franco’s Spain up to 1968, when this music underwent a crisis and adjustment to new institutions, practices, and audiences directly connected with the subsequent transition to democracy. eng info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess © 2013 Routledge Jazz, Música de - España - Franquismo Jazz - Spain - Franquism Swinging modernity: Jazz and politics in Franco’s Spain (1939–1968) info:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart
