Jazz Manouche at Morocco Bound

Join us at Morocco Bound Bookshop for a new monthly celebration of gypsy jazz, led by one of the UK’s finest quartets, Fidelio Hot Club.

Bringing together four of the most sought-after musicians on the London scene - Ray Rafols (violin), Sol Grimshaw (guitar), Cornelius Corkery (guitar), and Toby Yapp (double bass) - Fidelio Hot Club are steeped in the tradition of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli. But this is far from a museum-piece tribute.

Alongside the authentic hot club sound of 1930s Paris, expect daring and joyful reinventions of music by Dvořák, Tchaikovsky, Piazzolla and even David Bowie — alongside Django classics and original compositions. Virtuosic, playful, and bursting with energy, this is gypsy jazz with imagination.
