Brian Setzer single-handedly brought back swing music in the late ‘90s with his energetic album The Dirty Boogie. The fad introduced a generation of teeny boppers to the cheerful sounds of 1940’s big band, but slowly fizzled out after a few months.

Setzer is taking another stab at recreating the swing fad almost ten years later, but is taking a unique, experimental approach. His forthcoming album, Wolfgang's Big Night Out, is a concept project in which Setzer uses an 18-membered band to create swing-styled remakes of classical music arrangements. The quasi-covers feature original lyrics over familiar melodies - - quite a unique way to introduce younger generations to Mozart, Beethoven, and Tchaikovsky.
