Fantastic new vid "Hommage a Django Reinhardt"

stubla · October 2010

Just came across this marvellous new concert video "Hommage a Django Reinhardt"

http://www.pluzz.fr/hommage-a-django-reinhardt.html

Not everythings to my taste but little Swan and Levis Reinhardt are amazing as is the great classical guitarist Roland Dyens and accordionist Marcel Azzola;plenty more great playing from Richard Manetti,Boulou and Elios,Romane,Angelo DeBarre,Tchavolo and Mathieu Chatelain as well.

Enjoy!

Seeing all these great musicians on the same program with the amazing Roland Dyens prompts me to investigate more about them.
What, for example, CDs of Tchavolo Schmitt"s should I pick up and start out with?
Any suggestions?
Also, I will make a point of picking up Dyens' CD of "Nuges".
Great stuff!!!
