The solos of Django Reinhardt are an endless source of inspiration and amazement for any musician. In this exciting book, the author has compiled precise solo transcriptions (in notation only), as well as a thorough analysis of each. There is also a complete "how to" section that is like a book in itself. This book contains some of Django's best work. It covers a period of 17 years, from Django's first trio and quintet recordings to one of his last bop-influenced sessions, "Live at the Club St. Germain." Multiple versions of many solos are included to show Djangos' musical development over his long career. Studying the music of the master of Gypsy Jazz can help lay a solid foundation for your own sound and style.

This text wasn't from me - don't worry - it's a sell pitch by the publisher. Selection of titles seems to be driven by cost associated with transcription rights rather than music choice. The analysis is ok, not marvelous, let's say analytic. It's done professionally and with lot's of interest from the author in Django's actual playing.

Nuages transcriptions that were part of the first edition below have been removed from that one, for reasons of exlcusivity by "Hal Leonard cie" I assume...not sure but...this is Mel Bay, a rival company - I could be wrong...
