Stéphane Wrembel: Django l'impressioniste.
Wrembel may be the foremost interpreter of Django Reinhardt’s music in North America. Whether sticking to the French master’s arrangements, or taking the music into new territory, Wrembel has always treated Django like a classic composer rather the cliché paragon of swing and speed he has often been portrayed as.
For the past couple of years, in addition to his work as a film composer and performer, Wrembel has delved into the study of Django’s “Improvisations” - the solo pieces that Django recorded throughout his life and were in fact precisely scripted and more akin to classical preludes than jazz improv.
Wrembel painstakingly transcribed and memorized the entire cycle, highlighting the influence of Ravel and Debussy on the music, as well as the original compositional approach. Wrembel released the album “Django L’impressionniste” back in October 2019 - a stunning work, which he premiered at the Lyon Opera house.
