Bonjour, Chris.

Wow!!! This is first-class listening (and then some).
I love what you've done.
It's kind of like Stéphane Grappelli meets Django Reinhardt meets the tango.
Absolutely terrific listening!

Very nice. Sounds like Stephane is getting his fair share of Django's tune though. Ha! Enjoyed the listen.

Thanks Noël, Nigel and DC Ron.
The starting point for this piece was that I found that Django rhymed well with tango!
So, I challenged myself to compose a tango for Django...

Whoa! You grabbed me right from the title. Django is one of my all time favorites. The 2-finger wonder. This one is so cool. Good idea adding the fiddle, too. Man, I gotta check out RT1213 and RT1211. Inspirational stuff, man.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Very excellent period piece! Loved the interchange of guitar and fiddle.

Chris, you really captured the gypsy jazz artist perfectly.
Django could do more with 2 fingers then most of us 4 fingered guitarist could.
Great job on this song.

Thanks WaoBand, Mario and Laurent.
The Stephane Grappelli/Django Reinhardt duo is the best violinist/guitarist duo that has ever existed!

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
