Top players from the international gypsy jazz world will unite for the eighth edition of Django Amsterdam. Every year the festival is dedicated to the birthday of guitar icon Django Reinhardt, originator of gypsy jazz, or swing manouche. Performing on Friday evening are the Rosenberg Trio, with support act Eva sur Seine.
Singer Eva Scholten is a great promise in jazz, in the Netherlands as well as abroad. Eva sur Seine is her collaboration with the trio of gypsy jazz guitarist Thomas Baggerman. The combination of sophisticated vocals and virtuoso guitar playing can best be described as Ella Fitzgerald meets Djano Reinhardt.
The Rosenberg Trio have ruled the international gypsy jazz scene since the 1990s. Lead guitarist Stochelo Rosenberg is widely considered the heir to Django’s throne. A true family affair, the three cousins have been playing together since childhood. They have performed with world famous musicians on the most reputed stages, including a memorable show at New York’s Carnegie Hall for legendary violinist Stéphane Grappelli’s 85th birthday celebration. At Django Amsterdam they will combine the classical Django Reinhardt repertoire with Stochelo’s original compositions.
