Gypsy Jazz

[idssdi]

So i really like Django Reinhardt and the Rosenberg trio but that’s Pretty much the only gypsy jazz in really know. Does anyone have Any recommendations?

 

[Vagelis Karagiannis]

Jimmy rosenberg, Joscho Stephan, Andreas Oberg,Stephane Wrembel, Bireli Lagrene.If you are interested there is a greek band called Gadjo Dilo that takes greek songs (mostly rebetika)and turns the gypsy jazz(because they have common elements).

 

[idssdi]

Cool! I’play heel them out!

 

[Syn Gates]

I’d add Robin Nolan to the list. He’s incredibly creative and brilliant with chords

 

[idssdi]

[Krisztián Hauser]

@syn can we maybe expect some gipsy jazz lessons from you in the future? That would be killer!

 

[Aightball]

Gypsy Jazz lessons would be awesome! Definitely something to look forward to in my studies . Think it’s time to add to my gypsy jazz playlist!

 

[idssdi]

[Julian Barton]

Thanks Ids.

 

[Christopher Lonski]

I would like to emphasize that EVERYONE go check out Bireli Legrene! That guy is seriously one of the great musicians of our time and quite possibly my spirit animal! There are video from when he was like 13 just absolutely destroying some gypsy jazz. He is definitely one of the GOAT, undoubtedly.

 

[idssdi]

Thanks I’ll add him to the list

 

[idssdi]

For the people interested I’play Just link the playlists here

 

[idssdi]

I did forget about one Group. They are called Hot Club sandwich and they make gypsy jazz versions of famous songs by people like the Beatles and the mama’s and papas.

 

[idssdi]

So I just found these people. They nake pretty interesting cover of gypsy jazz classics https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeJG85WYO8a2KJgVQYbI4kA

 

[Matt Wildman]

I’m gonna try and start listening to gypsy jazz. I never explored or even heard of it until I became a part of this school. Can someone briefly compare it to something? Other than the fact that Syn uses it in his playing style?

 

[idssdi]

I sometimes feel like Marty Friedman uses stuff like it, like weird scales and diminished arpeggios and stuff.

 

[Ted Hoffman]

Django was the man… you might think about some Western Swing stuff too, similar in some ways, but its own genre. Check these folks out…
