About this product

Product Information

Forged by the work of Django Reinhardt - arguably the finest jazz guitarist of all time - Manouche or Gypsy swing is a fascinating blend of Gypsy virtuosity and American jazz. In 1930s France, this new 'swing' music had a profound impact on the local musical scene and although the music's creator died in 1953, his music remains highly influential to this day. Django Reinhardt created a tradition, which has been perpetuated and developed by many exceptional contemporary musicians. The Rough Guide To Gypsy Swing celebrates this style from the original Gypsy musicians of the time to those French and German musicians, mainly of Manouche origin, who have built on Django's legacy and continue down the road of innovation.
