Djangofolllies | Dario Napoli Modern Manouche Project
24 Jan 2019 - 24 Jan 2019
Although Sinti guitarist Django Reinhardt is the main inspiration, Dario Napoli looks in his Modern Manouche Project to include more contemporary influences in his version of gypsy swing, introducing elements of more modern musical styles such as bebop, funk and modern jazz. The result is an unpredictable and exuberant sound, which steals from various musical eras leading you through a rich and vibrant sonic experience, without ever totally abandoning the gypsy imprint of Django. Most songs are original compositions of Dario with a few reinterpretations of jazz or pop standards from different eras.
