Yes it is minor swing. Minor swing IS an improvisation. If you listen to all of the Django versions of minor swing, radio transcriptions etc, he never repeats the theme that was captured on the studio version.

Gonzalo's right hand is art form for itself

Does anyone here know what kind of mic and mic clip seen in the sound hole here that he uses for his live concerts? I’ve been very impressed by the tone he gets through the PA at his live shows. I’ve seen other concert videos of him where the attached sound hole mic is the only mic he’s using and it sounds great. I would love to find the same mic and mic clip for my guitar. Thanks in advance for any info on that. Great playing here as always from Gonzalo

+DC Music School Denis do you know what are the type of woods used to build this Olivier Marin guitar that Gonzalo is playing? Thanks in advance

[TreDogOfficial]

so is he playing triads? what do you call that?

[turncoatslethbridge]

It's not THE minor swing, but it's a swing study in a minor key. That works for me. Nobody is going to say, "That's not THE blues in C", but yeah.... Sounds great.

[RyuuzakiXIII]

I agree that it should be called improvisation on Minor Swing if you don't play the theme.

@earlysingles67 haahaha le mec s'aime tellement qu il regarde sa main droite dans l'ecran de la camera

[manmanboby]

Even he doesn't play the theme...
