Beijing Gypsy Jazz Band

Our fantastic Beijing Gypsy Jazz Band is a multi-national ensemble of exceptionally talented musicians who draw their musical inspiration from the styles of the legendary Django Reinhardt from the 1930s and 1940s. This group is undoubtedly one of the finest providers of gypsy jazz in China. Their superb old-fashioned swing music, complemented by perfectly suited stage attire, makes for an incredibly enjoyable live music experience for any audience.

The Beijing Gypsy Jazz Band boasts members from France, the United States, Greece, and China. The group features two guitarists, a percussionist, and a double bass player, with an option to add a clarinet player as the fifth member.

The gypsy jazz band’s live music repertoire includes Django Reinhardt-style songs, American swing classics, jazz manouche, traditional gypsy waltzes, Latin pieces, and even traditional Chinese and Italian compositions, where the guitarist occasionally plays the mandolin for a different tonality in the set. Additionally, the singer can perform in English, French, Italian, and Chinese.

The band has been playing gypsy jazz in China for many years and has won the Best Band of the Year award by City Weekend Beijing three times. They have also been nominated by the National LPA awards for the Best Jazz Band. They have participated in countless events in and around Beijing and have collaborated with high-profile clients such as Ferrari, Louis Vuitton, Air France, and the Institut Français.

The immensely popular Beijing Gypsy Jazz Band is perfect for everything from weddings and parties to corporate functions throughout China and beyond if needed. If this sounds like the right live music for your event, please contact us at Scarlett Entertainment.
