Japanese Jazz Opera

Christmas Eve, and our last calendar window. We’re ending with the weirdest jazz clip I have ever seen.

For those of you not in to jazz this one might be a bit hard to grasp, but to explain, all the music in the video are very famous jazz standards. We get to hear songs like Now’s The Time, Blue Monk, Sister Sadie, Doxy, Donna Lee, Cherokee, Fables of Faubus, ‘Round Midnight & St Thomas + a few more. Hilarious! I wish I could understand what the story is.

I would also like to take the opportunity to wish you all a Merry Christmas. I’ve had a very nice day with the family gathered, lot’s of food and lot’s of laughter, the way it should be. Now the house is empty and silent again and I’m filled with the calming feeling of peace inside. I hope you all have a very peaceful and soothing night, let’s hope we can keep this feeling and take it with us into 2010. This world needs it more now than ever I think.

Merry Christmas everyone!
