Stochelo Rosenberg is the very best gypsy jazz guitarist (guitar player) in the world, an incredible guy executing with the Salavatore Russo trio the Waltz "Dolores". Stochelo Rosenberg has offered a beautiful and incredible two hours of excelent jazz gypsy guitar's music in the Teatro Romano of Lecce. http://www.dubaimanufacturing.com/

STOCHELO ROSENBERG
Stochelo Rosenberg was born in a Gypsy camp on 19 February 1968, the first son of Mimer Rosenberg and Metz Grunholz. He has four brothers and one sister. Stochelo has two sons Isaac and Pepito (Jazzy).
Stochelo Rosenberg, started playing the guitar when he was 10 years old rather late for a boy in a family which consists of all musicians. Rosenberg learned to play the gypsy guitar from his father and his uncle Wasso Grunholz, but most of all he learned by listening to the records of his hero, Django Reinhardt.
When Stochelo Rosenberg was twelve years old, together with his cousin Nous'che Rosenberg on rhythm-guitar, and Rino van Hooydonk on bass-guitar, Stochelo won the first prize in a children's TV-contest. Several record companies were interested, but Stochelo's parents wanted their son to grow up outside the world of the spotlights. He played throughout these years with Nous'che and his brother Nonnie on double-bass in churches and Gypsy-camps all over Europe.

Stochelo Rosenberg has developed from a talented but shy gypsy-kid into a world class artist and composer. He has written several beautiful pieces of music. In the beginning he played a Favino-guitar, and later he was able to buy an old Selmer guitar, number 504. The legendary Django played the same model of guitar with the number 503 quite a good feeling for Stochelo! He uses D'Addario Silk and Steel strings and Galli-strings.

In 1992 he received a golden guitar from the magazine Guitarist as a reward for making the accoustic guitar so popular.

Like many of his contemporaries, Stochelo Rosenberg loves to improvise, and like many of his predecessors, he is searching for new challenges. He likes to try new ways of playing, but always with the solid underpinning of his first love: the music of Django Reinhardt. His favorite song to play is Nuages
