Jazz Hot

Django Reinhardt
Duration: 6:20
2,200 views

A remarkable short film with guitarist Django Reinhardt, violinist Stéphane Grappelli and their band the Quintette du Hot Club de France performing on a movie set in 1938. The film was hastily organized by the band’s British agent Lew Grade as a way to introduce the band’s unique style of guitar and violin-based jazz to the British public before their first UK tour.
