Swing Manouche - Canarro Zenekar

Hungary's first gipsy jazz band whose repertoire combines Hungarian traditions with the jazz and manouche swing styles. They perform their own songs as well as famous melodies, including movie soundtracks. Their unique sound encapsulates the Django swing, the tango, the Hungarian chanson and jazz music. The pulsating manouche melodies, sometimes mixed with Hungarian folk elements, create a new, completely individual style with their music, evoking the swing and jazz sound of the 1920s and 1940s of Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli with a youthful, dynamic and improvisational style, with uplifting melodies.

Members: Tamás Szakal, violin, Attila Sidoo, guitar, Viktor Jakab, guitar, Márton Soós, bass
