Biography

Paris, France (1908 – 1997)

Stéphane Grappelli (1908-1997) was a pioneering jazz violinist who founded the quintet of the “Quintette du Hot Club de France” with Django Reinhardt. It was allegedly the first all-string jazz band.

Born in Paris, France, to Italian parents, Grappelli started his musical career as a silent film pianist. He later attended the Conservatoire de Paris, between 1924 and 1928.
