Japanese jazz opera (I think)



Though words fail, this works for me. It works as a joke, as a fascinating socio-historical product, and, arguably I suppose, as jazz. Check out Charlie Parker's Donna Lee at 7:31. The guy is really singing a difficult melody. Amazing.

Judging from the comments it is from a Japanese comedy show, though this definitely warrants further research.
