What a fantastic tribute! It's so fun and fantastical. It kind of reminds me of the kind of musicians you'd find playing around and near a fancy french bakery, which is a good thing!

Love it. Thanks for sharing!

Dear "chris37"...

Your musical presence on the User's Forum is invigorating and inspirational, sir. Through your choice of styles and Real Tracks in Band-In-A-Box, I believe that you reveal your musical soul in a distinctive, even unique way.

"Inspired by Django" sounds as though it was performed in a "live" venue where the musicians were feeding off of the audience's excitement with their playing.

May Mr. Reinhardt's musical spirit continue to guide you!

Most sincerely,

LOREN

Thanks Loren,
Music is effectively the best way I've found to express my feelings.
Band-in-a-Box is a nice tool to help for this.
For this song, I've created the melody and the harmonic progression.
I've choosed the notes for the guitar and the fiddle solos. It has taken time to get the final result !
I hope Django would like this piece. Christian

Thanks for the time trip back to the Hot Club.

We enjoyed this very well arranged and produced song. It sounds wonderful on our monitors.

Hi Chris,

I'm a BIG fan of Django and Stephane. You've created a very good representation of what it would have been like to hear him in person at a small club. Excellent!
