Between 1930 and 1933, Dallapé became the most popular dance orchestra in Finland. From a modest four-man combo it had grown into a highly professional 14-man orchestra with its own tour bus, music school and publishing company. The orchestra played regularly in Helsinki. It is characteristic of its popularity that in 1933 it took over the Heimola hall on Hallituskatu, which had room for 1500 dancers. The orchestra was now billed as the "Dallapé accordion orchestra". The accordion had become a highly popular instrument in Finland, and the orchestra included some of the country´s leading accordion soloists, such as Paavo Raivonen and Viljo Vesterinen, in its ranks. If necessary, all the orchestra members could play this instrument. A large share of the orchestra´s popularity was also due to the songwriting skills of its founder and manager, Martti Jäppilä. Eventually Dallapé developed from an accordion orchestra into a swing band. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
