Review of Young French gypsies keep Django flame alive


If you liked Les Triplettes de Belleville then you will like this piece. It captures the essence of the gypsy music of France featured in that film. It also makes the connection of people to this music that serves as the roots for a dispursed culture. Would make for a good end piece on a news broadcast. The interesting part of this piece is it is very Euro-centric but brings to light music that is heard in different styles all over the world.
