Now in its tenth year, on December 7 the Festival Internacional Gypsy Swing Django Reinhardt in Santiago, Chile featured an extensive roster of local artists.

The Cultural Center of Spain in the Chilean capital once again welcomed a large audience that enjoyed the music of renowned jazz groups including Swing Song Bossa with Natalia Ramírez, Federico Dannemann, Milton Russel, and Marcelo Salinas, the Flash Trio of Nelson Vera, Gonzalo Ostornol, and Tomás Reyes, Thais Marie Antonie's trio with Jean Luis Carlotti and Cristobal Menares, and La Niun Orleans consisting of Kristel Nielsen, Rodrigo Maturana, Boris Ortiz, Cristian Álvarez, and Héctor Alburquerque.

Guitarist and festival director Marcelo Salinas thanked the public and the musicians for their support, which has made this event one of the highlights of the Chilean jazz calendar.
