Django´s Castle With Bruce Adams - Swing Hotel Du Vin

CD Description

Django´s Castle With Bruce Adams - Swing Hotel Du Vin

Gypsy jazz trio from Barcelona ‘Django´s Castle’ is one of the most devoted and super-skilled Django Reinhardt tribute ensembles. They were formed in 1984 by guitarist Pere Soto and since then they travelled and are playing at jazz festivals around the globe.

At the Birmingham International Jazz Festival from 2008 they were together with guest trumpet player Bruce Adams the big hit of this festival and were immediately booked again for the 2009 issue. On the face of it the musical combination might seem an unlikely one; a Django-esgue ensemble teamed with a swing trumpeter.

However jazz connoisseurs will remember Reinhardt´s incomparably graceful collaborations with the elegantly fanciful flights of Bill Coleman.
