Dans le brouhaha actuel prisé par les médias, ça fait du bien d'entendre de vrais artistes.
Je suis guitariste et je mesure la difficulté pour accéder à un tel niveau de qualité et d'esthétique. Bravo.

Beautiful ❤️✨, gypsy jazz just transports me to a world where my worries just melt away. I am a 21 year old from India and I absolutely love jazz. I wish more young people were into jazz.

The acoustic flavor of this trio is kind of magic....

[sologelo]

Lagrene and Joscho are just in different level.. I mean look at the technicality.. woooo broad!!

[Boobypoppop]

Two world greats of guitar! Playing a beautiful standard. This has made my Friday!
Thankyou!

Gentelmen I believe I have passed on every possible "blown away" comment already for your previous videos. Joscho and Bireli stunning as always, and are truly too cool for school. Thank you all. Blessings from Kansas~

Ich spiele seit fünf Jahrzehnten Gitarre, und das gar nicht so schlecht.
Aber wenn ich das hier sehe und höre, kann ich nur fassungslos den Kopf schütteln, und ich frage mich
"Wie geht das?".
Phantastisch, Leute, einfach phantastisch!

Nice to see you partnered with the amazing Birelli Lagrene - I met him at a guitar festival in Croydon more years ago that I care to remember - also on the bill that night were Juan Martine, Barney Kessel, and Martin Taylor - but Birelli's contribution that evening was outstanding, and he certainly doesn't look as young as he did back then.

A Cole Porter tune with gypsy swing interpreted by Joscho Bireli and Volker. Nobody does it better !!! Thanks guys and happy holidays.

[djloera]

I could listen….enjoy this all day long!

[artetete]

I think the music that Joscho Stephan makes with his guitar is the best I've heard in my life..¡¡

[herbharjes]

Volkler Kamp lays down a driving bass line that the guitars can play off of. Which of course they do . Great performance by all.

[marchandesermf]

Awesome for my ! Great interprétation jazzy you for sharing

[Sludgepump]

GaaaaH!!! SO good! Okay, now returning to listen again....

[StratSound]
