Bireli Lagrene Ensemble - Routes To Django Live At The Krokodil
Review by Duane Shinn
The Bireli Lagrene Ensemble has released a stunning live album, Routes To Django Live At The Krokodil, that showcases their incredible musicianship and passion for the music of Django Reinhardt. The album features Lagrene on guitar, along with a talented ensemble of musicians who bring their own unique style and flair to the music.
The album kicks off with the lively and upbeat "Minor Swing," setting the tone for the rest of the album. Lagrene's virtuosity on the guitar is on full display throughout the album, particularly on tracks like "Nuages" and "Djangology." The ensemble as a whole plays with a tightness and precision that is truly impressive, particularly on the intricate and complex arrangements of songs like "Swing 42" and "Limehouse Blues."
One of the standout tracks on the album is the hauntingly beautiful "Tears," which features Lagrene's delicate and emotional playing. The ensemble provides a subtle and supportive backdrop, allowing Lagrene's playing to really shine.
