Historical Misappropriations with The Hot Sardines, Flash Mob Jazz and Postmodern Jukebox
Contemporary swing bands spend a lot of effort arranging jazz standards to their unique set ups, as well as creating covers and re-imagining of those old standards.
Similarly, not willing to limit themselves limit themselves yesteryear, these contemporary artists re-imagine more contemporary pieces, modulating timing, key, and style to create jazz versions of modern pieces.
Postmodern Jukebox excels at this, and as a preview of their upcoming Ottawa show, here is a collection of wonderful re-imaginings.
