A diverse audience gathers around a bandstand where an orchestra plays lively tunes that fill the air. Amongst them is a talented vocalist captivating her listeners with her melodic voice. The fashion of the era is on full display as both men and women are dressed impeccably in their finest attire. Men don elegant hats while ladies wear beautiful dresses adorned with intricate details.
