Among all great Weimar Republic orchestras, Adolf Ginsburg remains the misterious personality. All what is known for sure from his life are thefacts that he was a violinist, he came to Germany from St. Petersburgh (probvably, with the whole great wave of the Russian emigrants after the Bolshevik Revolution), and that in the late 1920s he established his own dance orchestra in Berlin. He soon became so succesful as to be employed to play in the most fashionable restaurants and Tanz-Diele of Berlin (e.g. Cafe Berlin).Not much record remains about his activites after 1933 - the year when he, as most of the Jews living in Germany, perhaps became an emigrant to America - to eventually fade in the crowd of the first class vibrant & new style American players, who emerged in the US after the Great Depression. Adolf Ginsburg Tanz-Orchester, Refrainges. Paul Dorn - I Found A Million Dollar Baby (Ich habe leider kein Vermögen), Polydor 1932

Fabulous. My grandmother lived in Berlin until 1932, when she left with her family for America. Her 78s, photos, magazines and newspapers from her time in Berlin (1920 until 1932) thrilled me while I was growing up. What a city, what a time. Her photos of the K-Damm (Wertheim, Teitz, etc.) are dazzling, and her catalogs and brochures from the original KaDaWe used to thrill me as a child, even though they were 40 years old at the time. I'd like to see more of the city my grandmother loved.

vieles hatte weltklasse in berlin aber auch schattenseiten, wie arbeitslosigkeit, aufkeimender nationalismus. als dann die provinzler aus den südlichen und anderen gauen ordnung im sündenbabel berlin schafften, war es vorbei mit dem geistigen schmelztiegel der führenden köpfe. die nation mutierte zu gefolgsleuten der nationalen verblendung und brave mütter nannten ihre söhne adolf.
