  1. This is what it sounds like when two jazz guitarists decide to play the #Blues - Joscho, a #GypsyJazz legend, is playing with a lot of #guitar notables of late. Matteo Mancuso and Tommy Emmanuel just to name two. Bruno Müller, who is playing with Joscho on this track, is a German Jazz guitarist. #music

  2. 🧵2/ Here’s a #MusicVideo of #guitarist Antoine Boyer playing a Stevie Wonder classic. Boyer started out playing #GypsyJazz and then expanded to pop and finally to classical. There is really nothing this talented young virtuoso can’t play. youtu.be/KjpvJh5VGhM?si=Gewrrt #Music #guitar

  3. #BireliLagrene

    Quand j’ai écouté Pastorius pour la première fois, en 82, chez un disquaire londonien, j’ai pris une claque dans la figure. Je jouais un peu de basse, mais là je me suis dit : « Aïe, aïe, aïe ! » Alors j’ai acheté une Fender, mais il aurait fallu que je recommence mon apprentissage depuis le début… c’était un peu trop tard.

  4. My other current favorite guitarist is Antoine Boyer. Brought up playing #GypsyJazz Boyer can literally play anything - from Bach to Samba. And he can shred on his acoustic guitar. Here he is playing with my other current favorite (and the subject of the 1st two toots in this thread) Mateo Mancuso. Two of the best guitarists on the planet playing together. It doesn’t get much better than that. #guitar #music #MusicVideo

  5. It’s Friday evening where I’m at in the #PNW so it’s time for some music to see the weekend in. Don’t know about you, but I’m staying in tonight…looking forward to a chill dinner w/my partner and some quality TV time. Gonna get tight and kick-back, so we’re starting off with some #GypsyJazz from the Scinti clan (don’t call them Roma). Some outstanding guitar and fiddle riffs in this one. Good to just settle in and let the #music wash over you…

  17. My research on the German #Gypsies sent me back to #Django Reinhardt, the Three Fingered Lightning, who lost two fingers on his left hand, but was able to play his guitar at lightning speed.

    I first listened to his #GypsyJazz back in the 80s when I was subscribed to the Columbia House. My favorite was Minor Swing.

    It is a shame I who have five fingers suck at playing #guitar. I eventually switch to #ukulele which is much easier. But I still suck at it. 😂

  18. Listening for Cultural Clues in Jazz Manouche

    Django Reinhardt was a virtuoso guitarist and composer of Manouche (Gypsy) origin who lived between 1910 and 1953, achieving stardom in the 1930s. Being mostly associated with the jazz of his time, one may argue that his Gypsy origin was embedded into his music. After Django’s death, his music has been reappropriated by the Manouches and gradually became a community practice as well as a musical genre, nowadays known as Gypsy jazz or jazz Manouche. In this paper, we explore the existence and relevance of cultural markers associated with this musical genre, and attempt to relate musical and cultural features present in Manouche communities. The present work is based on questionnaires and interviews with both Manouche and Gadjé (non-Gypsy) musicians, includes listening tests proposed to musicians and instrument makers and accounts personal experiences of one of the authors (L.B.) as a Gadjo guitar apprentice. Our results confirm the importance of some cultural features for sound recognition that include the role of the music pedagogy within the Manouche community as well as the relevance of the guitar accompaniment.
