WOW JAZZ IS BACK TO WOW YOU AGAIN WITH WOW JAZZ 5
After 4 successful albums in the WOW series, Warner Music Malaysia proudly presents WOW JAZZ 5, a special-priced double-CD compilation of the best singing legends and protégés ever lived, which is also the fifth installment in this unbeaten jazz series.
Packed with 30 great, historical tracks performed by the best song stylists of the 20th Century, WOW JAZZ 5 lives up to its successful predecessors. For the record, jazz is a musical art form that originated in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States at around the start of the 20th century.
Born out of a blend of African American musical styles with Western music technique and theory, Jazz uses blue notes, syncopation, swing, call and response, polyrhythms, and improvisation among its many stylistic markers. Jazz as a genre is often difficult to define, but improvisation is a key element of the form. Improvisation has been an essential element in African and African-American music since early forms of the music developed, and is closely related to the use of call and response in West African and African-American cultural expression.
Now, for WOW JAZZ 5, more great vocalists, legends and rookies, are gathered for another exciting trip in the world of jazz. There are no replacements for Julie London, Dean Martin, Bobby Darin and Dinah Washington, as they have passed the torch to living legends such as Dianne Reeves, Bobby McFerrin, Steve Tyrell, Holly Cole and Natalie Cole.
At the same time, crossover performers such as Robbie Williams and Bryan Ferry help to enrich the sound of jazz in their own distinct way. Let’s not forget the new batch of torch-bearers such as Renee Olstead and Rumer, as well as our regional songbirds such as Lisa Ono, Jacinta, Sitti and Kei Kobayashi, making WOW JAZZ 5 as the most global jazz compilation in the market today.
WOW JAZZ 5 is now available exclusively at Rock Corner outlets all over Malaysia, for only RM 49.90. At the same time, you can still get the rest of the series of this collection, WOW JAZZ 1, WOW JAZZ 2 and WOW JAZZ 4 at the aforementioned music store. These series have been on the best-selling list over the past year, and with WOW JAZZ 5, it looks like fans are on the winning side again.
