Swing Guitar - The Genius of Django Reinhardt
Aroview: Short but informative documentary about the legendary jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, who rose from obscurity as a European gypsy to become perhaps the most acclaimed virtuoso of the style.
This fact is all the more remarkable considering he had only two functioning fingers on his left hand, after a fire had left the others paralysed. Featuring most of the known footage of the maestro, this features generous excerpts from many classics, including solos by longtime partner, the violinist Stephane Grapelli.
DVD Features
Includes 14 full music tracks and extra archival footage of Reinhardt and Grapelli.
