The
Cannibals go back to 1959. The repertoire of the band spans from entertaining
traditional Dixieland music to New Orleans jazz, playing numbers by, among
others, the Dane Leo Mathiesen, Armstrong, Ory, Ellington. A band very much worth
listening to, as well as being very danceable.
Originally,
the band consisted of students from St. Anne Music School/The United Church
Schools, which is home to the Copenhagen Royal Chapel Choir, at that time being
led by the conductor of The Royal Danish Orchestra, Mogens
Wøldike. Three of the present members of the band
come from this music school.
