About
The Django Festival All-Stars bring the music of the legendary Gypsy jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt fully into the 21st 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…in part due to the success of The Django Festival Allstars, who honor the traditions of Gypsy jazz while adding their own interpretations, arrangements and original compositions filled with stunning virtuosity.
