Marcel Loeffler and compagny

Biréli Lagrène

Marcel and Biréli together! First concerts of extraordinarily gifted young lads in front of parents at Manouche functions. Rare moments in the company of two exceptional artists with hearts as good as gold!

Marcel Azzola

A monument! He is inducted into the halls of the Grévin Museum for good. A one in a million swingman who never fails to dazzle his audience
at any tempo.

Yorguy Loeffler

Yorguy Loeffler is considered to be one of Alsace’s exceptional manouche guitarists. He was introduced to it by his uncle at the age of 14 and now constantly improves himself all on his own. A tireless worker, he became a music personality, who, while taking into account the heritage of the great Django Reinhardt, enriches his repertoire with diverse influences. Each time he takes the stage, he impresses by his virtuosity and inventiveness.

Nilda Fernandez

With an endearing work style, Marcel Loeffler is an internationally acclaimed accordeonist. The manouche musician’s formative years were in Django Reinhardt’s era, but he has added other colours to his musical palette, such as rock and sounds from Maghreb and had a similar experience while on tour in a camper throughout France with Nilda Fernadez. “His music moves me, the Spanish feel to it, flamenco has manouche origins,” explains the artist who is getting ready for Canada..

Duowith
Gilles Coquard

On the bass, with delicate, rounded phrasing, Gilles Coquard displays a rare sense of balance. He effortlessly glides into the groove of the accordionist. These talented improvisers are certainly not lacking in modernity in any way. Their approach to jazz is not engrained in the past. They are present.

Duo with
Mandino Reinhardt

“Between Mandino and me, there are long years of friendship. And in the music, this manouche touch is a plus. When I work with Mandino, I bring the arrangements that I keep in my head or on tape. Then together, we create real music atmospheres. When I work with other musicians I rarely have the profound relationship that I enjoy with Mandino.”

Trio Marcel Loeffler

Marcel Loeffler
Qui sait toujours s'entourer des meilleurs pour nous faire vivre des moments inoubliables ...
Gilles Coquard
Né le 20 Janvier 1960, il apprend le solfège dès l’age de 5 ans, joue du saxophone à 7 ans, de l’accordéon à 12 ans, puis découvre la basse à 17 ans. Depuis, il s’est présenté sur scène avec Kent, Liane Foly, Nilda Fernandez, Birelli Lagrène …
Engé Helmstetter
Musicien prolifique et compositeur, Engé apprend la guitare classique vers l’age de 10 ans. Très vite son attrait pour la liberté trouve dans le jazz manouche une dimension rêvée, il s’y exerce dès lors en autodidacte et avec l’aide ponctuelle de pointures du genre.
Ce trio vous emmènera du jazz manouche au tango, à des ambiances plus douces.
