glissando

Digging into the discography of Scott Bradlee’s and his interpretation of the American Song Book, Miss Cellania treats us to a very jazzy merging of George Gershwin’s 1924 Rhapsody in Blue and Queen’s 1975 suite from A Night at the Opera. A talented composer and arranger, Bradlee is also a frequent collaborator with the rotating musical collective Postmodern Jukebox, an initiative he founded in 2011, the same year as he created this musical number, and has since amassed a huge following, attracted guest artists and has held concert tours, performing contemporary popular music in the style of Big Band, swing, cabaret, Dixieland, ragtime or doo-wop.
