about

It's Mozart! It's jazz! And there are cartoons.

Mozart died without finishing his requiem, so The Queen's Cartoonists are here to finish the job! "Mozart's Jazz Requiem" is a tribute to one of the greatest pieces of music ever written. The entire piece has been re-composed in the style of Raymond Scott and John Kirby, with a hint of modern jazz in there, too. Using Mozart's famous sense of humor as their guide, the band presents a wildly original take on Vienna's greatest export.

The album is being released with videos from the recording studio, as well as classic, death-themed cartoons, re-edited to fit with new version of the piece.

Be on the lookout for the staged concert version, featuring TQC's brand of humor and mayhem. Mr. Mozart himself even makes an appearance!
