Jazz manouche (gypsy jazz) is a style that blends swing with the traditional music of the Manouche gypsy culture. This genre rose to popularity thanks to artists like Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli. The signature element of manouche is its distinctive acoustic guitar — an essential part of the sound. Beyond that, gypsy jazz is incredibly diverse.
Gypsology is a gypsy jazz trio performing classic pieces of the genre, arranged in a fresh and energetic style.
Their performances combine the sounds of mid-century European and American music, weaving Django Reinhardt’s legendary repertoire with the trio’s own take on the masters of swing.
The band frequently collaborates with talented friends and guest virtuosos from around the world. For example, next month in Tbilisi, Finnish clarinet virtuoso Zhenya Gimer will join the trio on stage.
