GYPSY JAZZ TAGE 2026
The Deutsches Theater München presents an event organized by Hot Club München 2021 e.V.
Gypsy Jazz Days Munich
Since 2015, the Gypsy Jazz Days have been an annual highlight for fans of music in the tradition of Django Reinhardt. Inviting renowned artists and ensembles from all over Europe is a central part of this citywide festival. On the first evening, the Amati Schmitt Quartet will perform at our venue with special guest Dorado Schmitt.
Swing Manouche from France
The Amati Schmitt Quartet, one of the most original ensembles in the world of Gypsy jazz, is honored to perform for us. They have already made a name for themselves with performances on major festival stages across Europe. Amati Schmitt can rightly be called a virtuoso when it comes to technical sophistication and ingenuity. But it is above all his inimitable tone and his compositions that make him an exceptional artist. The quartet presents jazz standards from the early Hot Club era as well as distinctive original compositions in the style of Swing Manouche.
Special Guest: Dorado Schmitt
Special Guest des Abends ist kein Geringerer als Dorado Schmitt. Der Geiger und Gitarrist ist eine Stilikone des Genres. Als Komponist von Bossa Dorado hat er eine der Gypsy Jazz Hymnen schlechthin geschaffen.
