Stephane Wrembel Quintet (w/Special Guest Jean-Michel Pilc)

“Wrembel’s playing is simply wonderful,” raves VINTAGE GUITAR MAGAZINE. “After repeated listening to The Django Experiment I and The Django Experiment II, not to mention being privileged to be in the house for the stunning Carnegie Hall performance in early March, an unanswerable question gets lodged in the heart: is there deeper, more moving music to be found anywhere than the sounds of authentic Gypsy jazz, when played by masters of the form who insist on the absolute necessity to take risks, to stretch and bend the “rules,” to make it modern? Bravo and merci to Stephane Wrembel for his knowledge, passion and ability to accomplish this in giving us almost two hours of sheer delight,” says ALL ABOUT JAZZ.

GRAMMY® Winning Guitarist STEPHANE WREMBEL is quite simply one of the finest guitar players in the world. The breadth & range of his playing and compositions are unmatched. Wrembel has been releasing a steady stream of music since 2002 and has truly made his mark as one of the most original guitar voices in contemporary music. ROLLING STONE calls him "A revelation." Wrembel is one of the preeminent guitarists in the world specialized in the style of legendary Gypsy jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt. He is most known for his GRAMMY® Winning composition "Bistro Fada" from the Woody Allen movie, "Midnight In Paris." Wrembel has released 16 acclaimed albums. "Perhaps the most creative improviser in Gypsy jazz today, Mr. Wrembel plays the guitar with a rich and colorful lyricism," says the NEW YORK TIMES. His live performances are unparalleled. Band includes: JOSH KAYE (Guitar); ARI-FOLMAN-COHEN (Bass); NICK DRISCOLL (Sax); NICK ANDERSON (Drums); JEAN-MICHEL PILC (Piano).
