Django Reinhardt
About the artist
Jean "Django" Reinhardt (23 January 1910 - 16 May 1953) was a Belgian guitarist and composer credited with popularizing Gypsy jazz, as well as conceptualizing the style together with several other Gypsy musicians. Reinhardt's nickname purportedly means "I Awake" in the Romani language; however, it may also have been a diminutive or a local Walloon version of "Jean." He severely injured two of the digits on his left hand as a youth and changed his guitar playing style to adapt to his handicap.
