Django Reinhardt & Stephane Grappelli
18,518 listeners
The two artists that defined French "Hot Jazz," Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli were the first European jazz greats. Reinhardt was the more innovative and original artist of the two, regularly stunning audiences with his swift guitar phrases that anticipated the bebop innovations of Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie. Grappelli's achievements were perhaps less remarkable though he was a fine player and was one of the first violinists to be featured in a small jazz combo.
