Get ready for a night of electrifying music at the Bennington Theater! This Jazz is hot, hot, hot! The Django Festival Allstars honor legendary Romani-French guitarist Django Reinhardt and his unique style of 1930s gypsy jazz, also known as “hot jazz.” Guitar, violin, double bass and accordion will get your heart pumping with swinging rhythms, fiery solos and awe-inspiring technical prowess. It’s a family legacy for group leader gypsy Dorado Schmitt, who plays alongside talented sons Samson and Amati and cousins Francko Mehrstein and Gino Roman. Virtuoso Ludovic Beier, who swings like crazy on the accordion and accordina, joins the family. The Django Festival Allstars bring the music to 'today' with their driving rhythms and romantic ballads with new music and some of Django's favorites. Django’s legendary influence spans an incredible range of musical icons, from Carlos Santana and Eric Clapton to Jimi Hendrix and Willie Nelson. His iconic gypsy jazz sound has inspired generations, and now the Allstars are taking America by storm, performing to packed halls and earning standing ovations.

Step back in time to Paris of the 1920s and '30s—where the air was filled with the romance of "gitane" music, lovers, and café culture. Django, the king of swing, teamed up with jazz violinist Stephane Grappelli to make musical history. The Django Festival Allstars channel that era, blending beloved standards with fresh, original compositions. Their performances are intoxicating, filled with heart-stopping ballads and wild, infectious rhythms. Don't miss this chance to experience the magic—join us at the Bennington Theater for a night that will swing you off your feet!
