Hollywood Bowl Season

On Wednesday I was introduced to Gypsy Jazz via the children's Summer Sounds program at the bowl where I volunteer on Wednesdays.  The music theme for this weeks program was Gypsy music and the guitar sound of Django Reinhardt, 1910 to 1953.  His Gypsy Jazz sound is a joy.  He lived in France but traveled through Europe and the US with Duke Ellington.

So from this fun summer program for young children I was introduced to Gypsy  Jazz.  Here are pictures of the performing group.
