Welcome Django Reinhardt Fans!

Welcome to DjangoBooks.com. This website is dedicated to the musical legacy of the great Gypsy jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt (1910-1953). Django Reinhardt pioneered the use of the guitar in jazz and was arguably the first great jazz guitarist. His music lives on in the music of contemporary Gypsy jazz guitarists such as Bireli Lagrene, Stochelo Rosenberg, Jimmy Rosenberg, and Angelo Debarre. You can read the latest news about Django Reinhardt and other Gypsy jazz musicians on our Gypsy Jazz Forum. Our Gypsy Jazz Encyclopedia contains a wealth of information about Django Reinhardt and the Gypsy jazz genre. An exhaustive selection of Django Reinhardt and Gypsy jazz instruction books, CDs, videos, strings, picks, and guitars are available at our Online Store. Thanks for visiting and enjoy the site!

Vive Django!
