quote: The instant I heard Django, I flipped. I chose his style because it spoke to me. He was too far ahead of his time. He was something else.
quote: In this ["Nuages"] graceful and eloquent melody, Django evoked the woes of the war that weighed on people's souls - and then transcended it all.
quote: We all know the Django story, but the actual recorded evidence is something else altogether. The hot jazz genius was a formidable speedster, yes, but his playing was also full of life and love, a romanticism that belongs to another century. Django is revered as much for his feel, his tone, and his heart as he is his technical prowess. A master of his art whose influence is felt far and wide, Django is proof that talent will always find a way to turn a setback into an advantage.
quote: Django is still one of my main influences, I think, for lyricism. He can make me cry when I hear him.
