Angelo Debarre & Ludovic Beier ~ Swing Rencontre ~ CD
Another swinging reunion of these two virtuosos of the modern Gipsy swing style. Guitarist Debarre is easily one of the best known Manouche style guitarists in Europe. Beier is a virtuoso of the French musette-style accordion who is equally comfortable testing the boundaries of Jazz with his instrument. This set of Gipsy jazz standards and originals gets a nice old-timey Parisian café flavor from the accordion, but the music is very up to date, highly virtuostic, and swings like mad.
