Welcome to the page with all our videos of Django Reinhardt’s solos. You will find in left sidebar (and below in the menu) the videos listed by title.

This page is a catalog of solos that allows you to quickly refer to any video or learn new choruses. I use it as a logbook: a part is free and another part is paying (learning).
