1920s Charleston

The Charleston was the dance that captured the spirit of the 1920s. It was danced with wild abandon by a new generation of independent young Americans, to the new hot jazz that was flooding the country. The dance began in Charleston, South Carolina, the city from which it takes its name. In 1923, The Charleston was featured in the Broadway show Runnin Wild, one of the biggest hits of the decade. The song from the show - James P. Johnsons tune The Charleston - spread the fad across the nation and onwards to the rest of the world. Josephine Baker became famous for performing the Charleston in Paris in the 1920s. The Charleston is both a solo and partnered dance, both wildly exuberant and exciting to watch. As the hot jazz of the 1920s gave way to the swingin jazz of the 1930s and 40s, the partnered version of Charleston evolved into Lindy Hop.

Charleston Crazy

A video dedicated to that crazy, wild, hot dance of the 20s- The infamous Charleston. The charleston was a huge craze in the roaring 20's, with people dancing till they dropped- literally. The dance became popular after the film 'Runnin' wild' featuring James P Johnson's 'The Charleston' played as a ragtime piece on piano. From then on, the dance was danced many times- pairs, solos and groups. This video shows a variation of charlestons, with clips from various sources and archive footage. -Famous Dancers are tagged- -Al Minns & Leon James- A famous piece of footage -Betty Bolten & Barrie Oliver- a pairs charleston -Skeets Gallagher & Helen Kane (Original Betty Boop)- part of 'I have to have you' in the film 'Pointed Heels' 1929. -The Russell Market Girls -Al 'Rubber-Legs' Norman- incredibly bendy legs!

Jim Hession / Master of Stride/ The Charleston /James P. Johnson /

www.hessionsession.webs.com http www.artistopia.com New piano CD's available as of April,2008 James P. Johnson, the father of stride piano, made history in 1923 by penning the quintessential pop tune and dance craze of the 1920's{better known as the "jazz age"}. Johnson, a student of Eubie Blake, followed Blake's 1921 "Shuffle Along" Broadway success with his own show, "Runnin' Wild". Here he utilizes the "Habenera" rhythm as the distinctive musical feature of the Charleston. This rendition leads off with a rubato treatment of the original verse. This piece was posted at the request of a YouTube viewer. Martha and I have done this as a piano/vocal feature in concerts for many years. This is a totally improvised rendition and stylistic elements of both Eubie Blake and James P. Johnson appeared as inevitable contributions to the mix. What a great addition to the stride repertoire for any two handed player!
