Basilic Swing presents a concert-show dedicated to the roots of Gypsy jazz, this fusion of musical styles born from the meeting of Romani traditions, Eastern European klezmer melodies, French chanson and American swing.
For this exceptional evening, the band welcomes crooner Karim Tobbi, a specialist in American swing. His elegant voice highlights the direct link between American big band standards and the world of Django Reinhardt.
With gypsy-style flourishes, klezmer influences and swing energy, the musicians trace the journey of jazz through music, from the roads of Europe to the clubs of New York.
A lively, warm and festive concert, celebrating the cosmopolitan origins of swing.
