Joscho Stephan • Diango Novo

 

 



Joscho Stephan, more than any other artist, has influenced modern gypsy swing with his playing: With his authentic tone, his harmonic refinement and sense of rhythm, but above all, with his breathtaking solo technique, Stephan has established himself on the international guitar scene. This master guitarist from Mönchengladbach is honoring Django Reinhardt on the occasion of the 100th birthday of the father figure of gypsy swing. With his homage, “Django Nuevo”, he pays tribute to the master with five own compositions. By the same token, he reveals himself as a visionary by taking nine compositions by other artists and using them to weave gypsy swing together with Latin, classical and pop. This allows the listener to rediscover such works as Santana's "Revelations", Mozart's "Turkish March", and “Michelle” by the Fab Four in imaginative gyspsy swing versions. With “Django Nuevo”, Joscho Stephan has managed to create a wonderful homage that the legendary master of gypsy swing would surely have been proud of.

Joscho Stephan, más que ningún otro artista, ha influido con su toque en el swing gitano moderno: Con su tono auténtico, su refinamiento armónico y su sentido del ritmo, pero sobre todo, con su impresionante técnica solista, Stephan se ha consolidado en la escena guitarrística internacional. Este maestro de la guitarra de Mönchengladbach rinde homenaje a Django Reinhardt con motivo del centenario del nacimiento de la figura paterna del swing gitano. Con su homenaje, "Django Nuevo", rinde tributo al maestro con cinco composiciones propias. Del mismo modo, se revela como un visionario al tomar nueve composiciones de otros artistas y utilizarlas para entrelazar el swing gitano con el latín, el clásico y el pop. Esto permite al oyente redescubrir obras como "Revelations" de Santana, la "Marcha Turca" de Mozart o "Michelle" de los Fab Four en imaginativas versiones de swing gitano. Con "Django Nuevo", Joscho Stephan ha conseguido crear un maravilloso homenaje del que el legendario maestro del swing gitano seguramente se habría sentido orgulloso.
