Correction or qualification · high confidenceLater evidence or qualification is available.
Read the later note before relying on this earlier entry.
What the evidence supports
The existing records identify a 1935–1943 program window with exact ensemble dates unresolved. That interval alone does not establish activity by December 31, 1940.
Limits and open questions
Preserve established band identities; do not adopt an earlier research note’s therefore-existed-before-1941 inference. No deletion or founding-date change.
Confidence detail: high. Evidence notes are not a count of distinct ensembles.
