Elegant, breezy jazz reinterpretations of iconic anime melodies. Gentle piano and breathy vocals that feel like a warm afternoon in a quiet Tokyo cafe.
All That Jazz is a Japanese musical project primarily known for its sophisticated jazz arrangements of Studio Ghibli soundtracks and popular anime themes. Formed as a collaborative ensemble, the group features a rotating cast of high-caliber session musicians, most notably featuring the vocal talents of Yuriko Kuwahara and Naomi Hattori.
Their sound identity is defined by a 'Cool Jazz' sensibility, utilizing a classic piano trio foundation often augmented by flute or saxophone to maintain a light, airy texture. Historically, they emerged during a significant wave of 'Jazz cover' popularity in Japan during the late 2000s and early 2010s, alongside acts like Platina Jazz and the Kazumi Tateishi Trio. While their primary output is focused on reinterpretations, their technical execution and specific focus on the Ghibli catalog have earned them a dedicated following among both anime enthusiasts and casual jazz listeners. Critically, they are praised for their restraint and ability to maintain the melodic integrity of the original compositions while providing a fresh, lounge-oriented perspective.
