welcome to the town hall.

tonight promises to be a special night and we thank you for joining us.

Voice and music have been part of town hall’s legacy and pianos have graced our stage on countless evenings over the last ninety-eight years. But guitars have enjoyed equal prominence and tonight’s show will continue that tradition. from day one, town hall has welcomed visitors and performers from every walk of life from every corner of the world. “it doesn’t matter who you are or where you are from, you are welcome here.” and it goes the same for music.

in 1928 a young andalusian guitarist named andrés segovia made his american debut at town hall. the recital would be the first guitar concert in New York’s musical history. after all, not many people at that time believed that the guitar was a proper instrument on which to perform the classics.

Within 10 years, guitars were not only accepted but were taking their place in every genre of music. reflecting our diversity of programming and spirit of inclusion acoustic, electric, rock, classical, fingerstyle, blues, folk, jazz, country r&B and funk have all had their place on the town hall stage.

among the greats who recorded at town hall included eddie Condon, herb ellis, roy Buchanan, John scofield & pat Metheny, We only wish we had a recording from May 3, 1968 when late into the evening (or early the next morning) Jimi hendrix and Mitch Mitchell jammed on stage with Joe tex at a benefit for Black power. rumor has it that hendrix had just recorded “Voodoo Chile,” and played its first public performance that evening.

But alas, not django rheinhart, which is why we are so delighted that stephane and his friends are here tonight to once again share with us the spirit and music of one the great guitarists of all time.

from everyone at town hall - thank you for coming, please enjoy the show.

1910 – 1953

d jango reinhardt was probably the first guitar hero. A gypsy who started out on banjo, he became a sought-after child prodigy in the French musette world only to see his career interrupted when his caravan caught fire, almost killing him.

Left with only three working fingers on his fretting hand, d jango switched to guitar and soon perfected a technique that allowed him not only to keep playing, but had him also reach new virtuosic highs.

Beyond the dramatic legend of the maimed guitarist and nonchalant Gypsy, lies a deep and ferociously curious musician. He went from the romani music world to musette balls, and then Louis Armstrong and hot jazz. He played with d uke Ellington, tried electric guitar (he didn’t like it much at first) and c harlie Parker’s recordings converted him to bebop. He played Bach of course, but was also profoundly influenced by r avel and d ebussy. In short, he was a true musician whose personality was far more complex than his legend would have it.

d jango a Gogo celebrates the legacy of the multifaceted musician - beyond the caricature of the Gypsy virtuoso and his three fast fingers. While Wrembel and guests all owe a great debt to reinhardt’s style, their interests remain multiple. Like their hero, the range of their musical interests is infinite and they know to keep the music alive by always rejuvenating it with new borrowings and new points of views.

Portrait of django reinhardt by Irene Ypenburg

Following the success of last year’s program, stephane Wrembel returns to the town Hall with Django a Gogo 2019: A Celebration of Guitar Through The Music of Django Reinhardt . this year’s program will not only feature reinhardt’s classics and originals inspired by his work, but also an unusual glimpse of the legendary guitarist’s solo pieces. this is a music treasure rarely explored -- and the subject of Wrembel’s latest research.

For this concert, Wrembel has assembled a new international all-star cast in the d jango reinhardt style, including Raphael Fays , David Gastine , Serge Krief (a disciple of Matelo Ferret, a reinhardt accompanist), and his sons Lior Krief and Ezeckiel Krief , and Simba Baumgartner ( reinhardt’s greatgrandson), whose debut cd, produced by Wrembel, releases on April 26. Also guesting are Josh Kaye (guitar/oud), David Langlois (washboard/ percussion) and Daisy Castro (violin). Anchoring will be Wrembel’s long time collaborators Thor Jensen on guitar; Ari Folman-Cohen on bass and Nick Anderso n on drums.

the concert also features special guests Jonny Mizzone , the 17-year-old banjo sensation and viral video star (with 50 million you tube views) and Bria Skonberg on trumpet and vocals, a rising star The New York Times dubbed “the shining hope of hot jazz.”

“It’s the culmination of a week we spend together playing music, sharing stories, sharing a journey, really, and it all builds up to something very special,” says Wrembel, who jump-starts the d jango a Gogo festival with a guitar camp that offers reinhardt aficionados a chance to workshop with these modern masters. “And at the end we’re on stage at the town Hall. I’m not inviting people just to come play solos and help sell tickets. that’s not what I have in mind. I want an extraordinary show, a concert that tells a story.”

Wrembel, an authority on reinhardt’s style, is perhaps best known for “Bistro Fada”, the theme song from the G r AMM y-winning soundtrack to Woody Allen’s 2011 Oscar-winning film, Midnight In Paris . He started d jango a Gogo as “a very small event” in 2004, “not as a nostalgia thing,” he emphasizes, or a simple tribute to d jango reinhardt, the man, “but to his music. s omething special went through him and whatever it was, it’s still alive in the music.”

He avoids the label “Gypsy jazz” commonly used for reinhardt’s music. “I know what jazz is. d jango is d jango. I don’t know how to categorize him,” he says. “ d jango was born in 1910 and when he grew up, the music scene in Paris was d ebussy and r avel, the Impressionists, and he’s part of that. But he’s also a guitarist, so he has that s panish classical guitar in him. Also jazz and swing arrives from America, and he gets that, plus he’s a Gypsy so he’s been initiated into Gypsy techniques and traditional Gypsy music. How do you classify a guy like that?”

the town Hall concert will serve in part as a presentation of Wrembel’s latest cd, The Django Experiment IV released on his own Water Is Life label on January 23, 2019 (on what would have been reinhardt’s 109th birthday), it’s the latest installment of Wrembel’s expansion and updating of reinhardt legacy. But the town Hall show will also feature a very special treat for reinhardt fans: a sampling of reinhardt’s solo guitar pieces, which Wrembel has been compiling, transcribing, and recording for d jango l’impressionniste, an album scheduled for future release.

“I’ve been working on this for three years,” says Wrembel. “ there are 17 pieces, all solo guitar, scattered from 1937 to 1953, and I will debut two or three at the concert. there’s swinging jazz d jango, there are improvisations, there are preludes. It’s classical, but it’s d jango. I cannot think of anything that sounds quite like that.”

As for the ensemble part of the program, he is especially excited about sharing the stage with masters such as r aphael Fays and s erge Krief, personal musical idols and critical influences in his career.

“I saw r aphael when I was 19 or 20. It was one of my first live d jango shows. When he touched the guitar he had something transcendental, and I remember thinking ‘ this is what I want to recreate when I play a concert.’ the guy is a living legend,” says Wrembel. “And s erge was my teacher. I’ve never heard anyone play a d jango song like he does. It’s like d jango is sitting next to you.”

Born in Paris and raised in Fontainebleau, the home of Impressionism and d jango reinhardt, Wrembel first studied classical piano, beginning at the age of four. But in his mid-teens, he discovered that he had an affinity for guitar. A Pink Floyd fan, he “spent hours learning d avid Gilmour’s style,” he said. “ s o I had a classical background, a passion for rock music, and then I found out about d jango. I fell in love with the very strong impressionist feel in his music.”

reinhardt was a s inti, (a roma group from Western Europe) and his style it’s rooted in s inti music. n ot a Gypsy himself, Wrembel immersed himself in s inti culture, spending “six, seven years going to the camps, playing for Gypsy weddings, parties, playing with Gypsy friends,” he said. “By going there I started learning the atmosphere of what it really means to play s intistyle guitar. I learned from the masters, from Angelo d ebarre and s erge Krief, and I played in the campsites a lot. that’s how you learn this music, because it’s a specific to a culture. Music is not only the notes. Without the culture, something is missing.”

Wrembel enrolled in Boston’s Berklee college of Music in 2000, graduating summa cum laude two years later, recorded his debut album, Introducing stephane Wrembel, and moved to n ew york in 2003. the following year he started d jango a Gogo. He has recorded more than a dozen albums, including both his d jango Experiment series and his own compositions.

Before “Bistro Fada”, Woody Allen also used “Big Brother” (from Wrembel’s Barbes-Brooklyn cd) in his 2008 film Vicky c ristina Barcelona.

the d jango a Gogo gala performance at the town Hall on April 27th is the culminating event of the 2019 festival, which draws fans and students from all over the world. Festival events include the guitar camp, jam sessions and live showcases in Wrembel’s home base of Maplewood, n ew Jersey from April 24-28.

ABOUT THE A RTISTS

sImba baumgartner

simba Baumgartner is django reinhardt’s great-grandson, and while this does give him an apparent head start in the jazz manouche world, he is still busy paying his dues in and around samois - django’s town to the south of paris. he first came to prominence at the age of 11, playing for Monaco’s royal family and has played with James Carter, romane and angelo debarre.

raphael fays

raphael fays is a living legend of the django style. Not only is he at the very foundation of the rebirth of django’s guitar sound (his first album was released in 1979 while he was only 19 years old!), but he continues to innovate, compose, record (21 albums so far!), and inspire the ever-growing crowd of django aficionados. his command of flamenco guitar rivals his command of django’s style. this is a very unique phenomenon in the world of guitar. he is one of the greatest virtuosos who ever lived.

serge KrIef

serge Krief is a legend in the parisian gypsy Jazz scene. he has trained almost all the best young players in france. he was a disciple of Matelo ferret (django’s accompanist) for 6 years. it is a tremendous honor to have serge be a part of django a gogo, because he has never pursued an international career despite many offers from around the world. he has been invited to tour with the biggest names in jazz, but has categorically refused every single offer that came his way, preferring to live a humble life in his native france where he continues to teach and play intimate concerts.

davId gastIne

david is one of the great masters of the gypsy rhythm guitar, and a specialist of the traditional french Musette and swing songbook. his sense of groove and sound is unmatched in the world today. he has played rhythm for stochelo rosenberg, Bireli lagrene, tchavolo schmidt, angelo debarre, sammy daussat, rodolphe raphaelli, and is part of the selmer #607 project featuring adrien Moignard, Benoit Convert, and sebatien giniaux. he is currently one of the most sought after rhythm players in the world.

Josh Kaye

ezeCKIel KrIef & lIor KrIef

sons of the master serge Krief, both lior and ezeckiel have reached an incredible level of mastery, and are considered to be among the greatest guitar virtuosos on the planet. at such young ages, their talent is difficult to fathom. for those of you who attended django a gogo 2018, you might have witnessed the musical power of lior, who was only 19 years old…

originally from london, england, Josh Kaye is a NYC based Jazz guitar and arabic oud player, best known for his specialization as an accompanist in the “Jazz Manouche” or “gypsy swing” style, where he has performed with giants of the scene from gonzalo Bergara to stochelo rosenberg.

thor Jensen

thor Jensen is a New York based guitarist with a unique sound that seamlessly integrates his masterful technique with the styles that influence him, allowing him to traverse genres from gypsy Jazz to rock and roll, Blues, Country and funk. in 2015, Jensen was invited to join stephane Wrembel’s band as the rhythm guitarist.

daIsy Castro

daisy Castro is a unique and incredibly powerful voice in the violin world today. she was first introduced to the music of django reinhardt and stephane grapelli on a trip to france at an early stage. daisy is happy to be among the new generation of players to help bring this beautiful music from the past into the future, respecting the tradition while adding a modern edge.

davId langloIs

david langlois was born in france where he learned the art of drumming. in 2003, after studying various percussive techniques in africa, asia and Central america, david moved to New York and has since collaborated with Bette Midler, paul McCartney, les paul, Bucky pizzarelli, david grisman, paquito d’ rivera, angelo debarre, dorado schmitt, roger Kellaway, stephane Wrembel, the Blue Vipers and many others. david performs regularly in prestigious venues including lincoln Center, Birdland, iridium, Joe’s pub, Knitting factory, etc… his recording work includes 18 albums, 3 concert dVds and 5 movies.

arI folman-Cohen

ari folman-Cohen supplies a solid, creative and melodic function to any musical endeavor in which he finds himself. he began his musical career in New York City in 2006, and has since established himself as a go-to bass player for a wide array of music, both on upright and electric bass. he is a member of the stephane Wrembel Band and also juggles a busy schedule supporting many singer/ songwriters, jazz, experimental and world musicians in the New York area and beyond.

nICK anderson

Nick anderson is a New York based drummer who has toured extensively throughout the united states, europe, asia, Central america, and africa. reviewers have described Nick’s playing as “downright lyrical, transcending the seeming constraints of the non-pitched drumset,” (rochester City Newspaper), and he’s been referred to as “an ideal timekeeper with his light, sophisticated playing making the music dance,” (all about Jazz). the Berklee College of Music and NYu educated musician is currently performing projects ranging from jazz, free improv, ska, country and rock with groups such as stephane Wrembel Band, Zephania and the 18 Wheelers, and pangari & the socialites.

Jonny mIzzone

Viral video sensation Jonny Mizzone has been making waves on the banjo since age 8 with over 50 million views on Youtube and performances on the late show with david letterman, Jimmy Kimmel live!, the grand ole opry, and Carnegie hall. his original music has been described as “an innovative mixture of folk, country, bluegrass, pop, and rock (and even a little bit of irish trad and punk thrown in for good measure).” Now at age 17, Jonny continues to push this classic american instrument to new places with catchy melodies infused with original hip-hop and synth pop.

brIa sKonberg

New York based Canadian singer, trumpeter and songwriter Bria skonberg has been described as one of the “most versatile and imposing musicians of her generation” (Wall street Journal). recognized as one of 25 for the future by downBeat Magazine, Bria skonberg has been a force in the new generation with her bold horn melodies and smoky vocals, and adventurous concoctions of classic and new. Noted as a millennial “shaking up the jazz world,” (Vanity fair), Bria skonberg has played festivals and stages the world over, including New orleans Jazz & heritage festival, Monterey Jazz festival, Newport Jazz festival, Montreal Jazz festival, and over a hundred more

TOUR THE HISTORIC TOWN HALL

town hall has played an integral part in the electrifying cultural fabric of new york City for more than 90 years. a group of suffragists’ fight for the 19th amendment led them to build a meeting space to educate people on the important issues of the day. during its construction, the 19th amendment was passed, and on January 12, 1921 the town hall opened its doors and took on a double meaning: as a symbol of the victory sought by its founders, and as a spark for a new, more optimistic climate. in 1921, german composer richard strauss performed a series of concerts that cemented the hall’s reputation as an ideal venue for musical performances. since, town hall has been home to countless musical milestones: the us debuts of strauss, and isaac stern; Marian anderson’s first New York recital; in 1945, dizzy gillespie and Charlie parker introduced bebop to the world; Bob dylan’s first major concert in ‘63; and much much more.
