The retrospective of Django Reinhardt's work, released in a series of box sets between 2015 and 2022, has become a reference collection praised by the press (Choc Jazz Magazine, Must TSF Jazz...), offering the best of Django with the best sound.
Discover the quintessence of this work through this vinyl series, benefiting from exceptional sound quality thanks to the remastering work carried out.
Focused on the year 1937, this first vinyl is dedicated to the golden age of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli's Quintette à cordes du Hot Club de France. On the occasion of the Universal Exhibition in Paris, the Quintette du Hot Club de France took off and became a highly sought-after group, both for the originality of its music and for the quality of its soloists. Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli then established themselves as the masters of a new form of "string" jazz and as the two greatest figures of European jazz.
Emblematic of this period, "Minor Swing" became the legendary hit of the famous Quintet.
As an unprecedented bonus, "Casanova," Django Reinhardt's last recording before his 1928 accident, is completely new to vinyl.
Entirely remastered, the flagship work of the two European masters breathes an incredible wind of freedom. A unique experience of Django's music.
UNPRECEDENTED BONUS: Casanova, Django Reinhardt's last recording.
