The Vienna Art Orchestra is steeped in history and stories. Musical history. Jazz history. Big band history. For a start, its development spans 33 years and is documented through over 50 records and CDs, dozens of books (including one about secret societies in Austria), a movie film, TV productions, numerous Tour Diaries, and umpteen-thousand press clippings. The vinyl beginning and (with this compilation) CD ending of this history was marked by the now legendary “Tango From Obango,” the “orchestra’s evergreen tune” (Der Standard/A).
