| THE ISRAELI GYPSY SWING ENSEMBLE
The SWING DE GITANES ensemble was established in 2007 with the objective of bringing Gypsy Swing music to Israeli audiences. The ensemble has already given over 300 performances which weave a musical tale of the two fingered founder of the genre – Django Reinhardt and his Gypsy music. Their repertoire includes the fabulous compositions of Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli, popular songs from 1920's - 1940's Paris, original compositions, contemporary Gypsy jazz with unique arrangements that incorporate elements of Yiddish songs, middle eastern flavors and a hypnotizing virtuosity.
The basic ensemble consists of 3 musicians:
Oren Sagi (double bass) an extremely popular jazz musician who intelligently combines his colorful virtuosity and rhythm into the Gypsy swing, thus contributing to the group's special "groove".
Yacov Hoter (jazz guitar) graduate of the "Rimon School" and the Jerusalem Academy of Music. As a youngster, Yacov fell in love with the style and traveled several times to Europe to study the basic principles of the Gypsy technique.
Ori Ben Zvi (jazz guitar) studied in the "Rimon School" and joined the ensemble on his return from Holland where he traveled in search of the Gypsy music.
The ensemble offers several different programs:
*the classic trio concert
*a tribute concert with the same line-up as the legendary quintet that started it all - the Hot Club De France
*larger shows where they host several musicians (violin, clarinet, accordion, piano, voice and even a tap dancer and swing dancers)
The group has participated in almost every jazz festival in Israel. (Eilat, Tel-Aviv, Givatayim, Caesarea, the guitar festival to name a few) They recently performed as the warm up act for the famous vocal group "Manhattan Transfer" and toured with the internationally renowned Hot Club de Norvege.
