Symphonic Django & Stochelo Rosenberg - Nuages(2008)

Symphonic Django/ Django Symphonique is the first ever edition of the legendary Django Reinhardt´s music orchestrated for symphony orchestra. The idea originated from Jon Larsen and was developed in cooperation with the festival Christianssand String Swing. The arrangements are by Per Ekdahl and were first performed live by Kristiansand Symphony Orchestra featuring Florin Niculescu (RO) and Stochelo Rosenberg (NL) as soloists.
Django Reinhardt´s music is more popular than ever. What was originally a French subculture grew in the 1980´s not only into a european phenomenon, but developed into a global trend. There are now thousands of musicians exploring the magical universe of Django all over the world and "Django" festivals in more than 40 countries.

Wonderful to see these great musicians in a symphonic setting. I think Django Reinhardt wanted to write orchestral arrangements, but it never quite worked out -- WWII in Paris not a good time for that, to say the least.
