свинг

Вид джазовой [ jazz] танцевальной музыки, исполняемой большим джаз-оркестром [ jazz band]. Впервые появился в начале 1920-х. В его создании участвовали руководитель джаза и аранжировщик Ф. Хендерсон [Henderson, Fletcher], Дюк Эллингтон [ Ellington, Edward Kennedy (Duke)] и позднее Каунт Бейси [ Basie, William Count]. Они создавали аранжировки музыкальных пьес для своих оркестров, состоявших первоначально из 10-12 музыкантов, разделяя оркестр на ритм-группу (рояль, гитара, контрабас и ударные) и мелодическую группу (саксофон и духовые инструменты), исполнявшую импровизации. В 1935 всеобщего признания добился Бенни Гудман [ Goodman, Benny], прозванный "королем свинга" ["The King of Swing"]. В оркестре Б. Гудмана впервые появились и белые музыканты. Свинг господствовал на эстраде вплоть до 1945. Среди самых популярных музыкальных коллективов, работавших в этом стиле, был оркестр Гленна Миллера [ Miller, Glenn], состоявший из белых музыкантов; не меньшим успехом пользовались и негритянские оркестры Каунта Бейси, Дюка Эллингтона и другие. Интерес к свингу упал в конце 1940-х
