A Gypsy Jazz Band
for your wedding

The elegance "à la Française"

The Parisian "élégance"
for your event

Gypsy Jazz is a very festive music that carries a positive energy. It is the number one music choice for Parisian weddings and other corporate events.

This music was created by the musician Django Reinhardt and developed in Paris in the 1930s. Martin, the creator of the site Jazz Bands Montreal, mastered this style while living in Paris, and became a renowned expert in this style of music.

Asking for the Gypsy Jazz band for your event or wedding in Montreal is a bit like having precious vintage Parisian elegance served on a platter.

Duo ? Trio ?
Quartet ? Quintet ?

The number of musicians you'll choose for your event will depend on your budget, but also on your musical tastes. Here are some recordings to help you know how the gypsy jazz band will sound like with 2, 3, 4 or 5 musicians. These are famous jazz tunes than guests always enjoy listening to.

L.O.V.E (Nat King Cole)

Bossa Dorado (Dorado Schmitt)

La crème de la crème
of musicians

The Jazz Bands Montreal collective is managed by a professional musician who has devoted his life to studying and teaching this music. This means that he is a musician that you will be able to see in concert in the most highly acclaimed jazz clubs in Montreal: concert at Upstairs (June 2023).

Thanks to his notoriety, can be highly selective when choosing musicians for your event. He will always choose "la crème de la crème" (the best of the best).

Festive vibe
or intimate atmosphere?

Gypsy Jazz can be played with 4 or 5 musicians as well as in duos. The ideal configuration for two musicians would be the guitar duo or the guitar-violin duo. Here is a video that gives you an idea of the sound you can have at your wedding or event with this duo formula.
