About
The Django Festival All-Stars brings the music of the legendary gypsy jazz guitarist, Django Reinhardt, fully into the twenty-first century. Their unique, high-energy performances pay tribute to Reinhardt, who is considered one of the greatest guitar players of all time. Reinhardt’s driving, swinging style became known as "hot jazz," and it continues to grow in popularity throughout the world. The All-Stars honor the traditions while adding their own interpretations, arrangements, and original compositions with stunning virtuosity.
