The band formed in Turin in 2001; their music comes from the Gypsy Manouche tradition, an original music born in France in 1930’s, after Django Reinhardt’s great success, mixing American jazz with French waltz musette and Tzigane dances.
Manomanouche try to stay as close as possible to the Gypsy Jazz original sound, putting great care in the choice of their instruments; their music is enthralling, adding a touch of Italian warmth to this Manouche strange brew.
Manomanouche’s repertory is made of Django’s tunes, plus many originals, some standards, some waltzes and some hidden gems from the past.
All the musicians have an important personal history before Manomanouche, and Touche an Pitzianti are longtime Paolo Conte’s collaborators.
Manomanouche play about 110 concerts a year; they play Italy, France, Germany and Switzerland, and Jazz Festivals and Manouche Festivals all around Europe; they also manage every September in Turin the International Django Reinhardt Festival of Jazz Manouche.
