His personality was just as sparkling and sweet as the music you’re hearing. My college’s strings department got to meet him in ‘83. Just shaking his hand you could feel so much life and spirit. I brought him a bottle of whiskey I was too young to buy. :) Now I’m 60 and ugly-crying while listening to SG
As a born and bred classical musician, I recently got into jazz music. I didnt know if jazz violin was really something that existed, as the jazz greats dont typically incorporate them. This guy is totally opening up my world right now
Well, I'd say you've found the best of them as far as I can tell. Django's guitar playing got so much attention (deservedly so) that I think the great Stephane Grappelli was a bit overshadowed. If you haven't already, you should check out Jean Luc Ponty too. He's a fusion jazz player, so it's a totally different style ( but it does have humanity and soul & has been celebrated for generations, so I hope Tejas approves! Also, the Dixie Dregs had several amazing violinists through the years. Enjoy, Cheers! th-cam.com/video/VIyaOe9uuvc/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/isMwQykag5c/w-d-xo.html

Before I ever heard of or listened to this, I saw him in the Keswick Theatre in PA, he rolled out in a wheelchair by himself, and I thought, I shouldn't have bought the tickets? The best violinist I ever heard.
I brought my 7 yr old daughter to a Grapelli concert at Massy hall in Toronto and after 10 mnutes she said Papa C,est la première fois que j'entends quelqu'un faire pleurer un violon .1st time I've heard someone make a violin cry..gratias,obrigado, asante merci
Some time, in the mid 60s, I was doing my homework, with my back to the tele... It was the Miss World competition... As a 9 or 10 year old, I had little interest in Miss world... Between costume changes Yehudi Menuhin and Stéphane Grappelli played violin jazz... I was hooked... even after I became interested in women...
I went to see Stephane Grappelli at Melbourne Town Hall when I was living in Australia in the early 1970's and he was incredible and also thrilled the audience with his piano playing. A remarkable gentleman.
As born..and bred...GOD makes great humans who play music....as I do...70yrold...55yrs teaching..57yrs playing stringed instruments..and hav have created 60 violina, violas and cellos...Jesus loves us
I was so sick and tired of rock music. I listened to a lot of bluegrass. One day on TH-cam I saw Stephane G. with David Grisman and I’ll never be the same again!!!!
In Chicago for a meeting of ABA Young Lawyers in the late 1970's and saw an advertisement for a concert featuring Stephane Grappelli - and went to experience his genius for the evening. It is still a magical memory.
The Nearness of You and Tournesol are just incredibly touching. I met him in person when he was 83, and heard him live in Europe. It was just one of my best memories in a concert hall.
This is the TRUE HEALING SOUND My soul feels a great relaxing sensation of being witnessing such a wonderful sound. Im in love with Violin . This is awesome .... Gratitude for being able to hear this
Grappelli, a genius. Ad lib ear playing and weaning them classical turbos off their sheet music should be made mandatory all over the world's conservatories
Way back when I was in the AFM in Albany NY, at the Christmas party they brought Grappelli up to play wandering violin during dinner.....an incredible experience I'll never forget.
This is a particularly intimate rendition of Stardust, technically magnificent and spectacularly Grappelli! Notice there are no dislikes; afterall, who would not like this work?
This is with just Alan Clare on piano - I say "just" but of course, apart from the album being a duet recital, I mean to say that Alan Clare was a deeply beautiful pianist in every regard with a sensibility that was valued profoundly by anyone lucky enough to have known of him. A very, very, very special man and musician who is regarded as a legend among musicians. I would say "The Jimmy Rowles of England".
Alot is made amongst guitarists of Django's guitar playing, but I honestly believe that what made Django so great as a guitarist is that he was just humbly trying to mimic with the guitar what Grappelli was doing with the fiddle.
Escuchando al sr. Grappelli y django me doy cuenta que son el uno para el otro pero el que ponía alas era el sr. Grappelli.... Creo que nadie percibió esto , o soy mago o brujo pero me quedó clarooooo, 😮😮😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Man.. Its some out of this world emotion, expressed with both piano n violin, for who knows how to feel it.. N we can all i think^,^ how beautiful..............
Ah Stephane i saw you at mals in Sochaux i was 11 I cried You played 2 hrs then your musicians including Martin Taylor who played on guitar left you on your own You played a bit on piano not long just an hour Then refreshed they came back for another hour Imagine 4 hours of bliss I know i ll see you in heaven i hope you still play Love you Stephane you touched my soul
When I saw Stephan play in London, he was quite old. I called him the best musician I had heard for the fact he made the violin disappear, and his thoughts were entering my head by some other direct route if that makes sense.
@@SamuelSEdme what is the reason to swear when refering to Grapelli look into a DICTIONNAIRE to ecpress who Grapelli wss and btpught to the classical scene
@@jacquesroy3342 Sure they are more descriptive words one could use when praising Grapelli's beauteous music, but there's no reason not to swear any more than there is not to use an emphatic word like 'very' or 'super'.
IT'S like Steph was always listening to family and friends HE WOULD NEVER MEET, doing BLUE GRASS IN AMERICA. Sincerely. All the greats would have asked for a FIDDLE solo.................. Can we get a MODERN hand FOR HOAGIE CARMICHALE?????????????? OR NAH?
I’ve been playing the violin/fiddle for 46 years and I attribute my love for it from Stephane. I’ve played in symphonies, fusion groups, but couldn’t read music for years.

I was hooked…wow how this music brings back memories.

Mr Grapelli my family and I adored you, you were not only a great artist but a wonderful man! May you rest in the stardust forever xxxx

Fierté de la France
Nous le pensons depuis le Japon.
It makes me cry to think he named it stardust. Means a lot! Best violin player in the world i say
グローバルクラシックミュージックなどにも永遠に不滅ですよね。
It's actually a Hoagy Carmichael song, lyrics by Mitchell Parish
Whoops. I guess you meant the name of the album.
Music from the heart of a great man.

Something about rainy days and Stephane is just pure bliss
I saw him every time he came to Minneapolis for over 30 years. Magnificent man
The Nearness of You and Tournesol are just incredibly touching. I met him in person when he was 83, and heard him live in Europe. It was just one of my best memories in a concert hall.
ITS for slowly 😪
His clarity and tone and depth of feeling is beautifully played on his violin ❤
Sublime Stephane.❤
Bella interpretación.
This is the TRUE HEALING SOUND
My soul feels a great relaxing sensation of being witnessing such a wonderful sound.
Im in love with Violin . This is awesome ....
Gratitude for being able to hear this
Grappelli, a genius. Ad lib ear playing and weaning them classical turbos off their sheet music should be made mandatory all over the world's conservatories
He is the best!
His improvisations are inventive without losing all sense of the original melody, unlike so many Jazz players.
So totally beautiful!!

UNA PERSONALIDAD, ETERNA ,TODO UNA BELLEZA .-.-.-

stephane you make my heart crying 😢god bless you🙏💯
good for the soul
This is a particularly intimate rendition of Stardust, technically magnificent and spectacularly Grappelli! Notice there are no dislikes; afterall, who would not like this work?
I noticed that too, no dislikes. We were lucky enough to see him play with an ensemble, it was great. He is great.
This is with just Alan Clare on piano - I say "just" but of course, apart from the album being a duet recital, I mean to say that Alan Clare was a deeply beautiful pianist in every regard with a sensibility that was valued profoundly by anyone lucky enough to have known of him.

what a wonderful music, I never will forget this night when I discovered it
THANK YOU
I sae Grapelli in concert some 25 years ago with my 7 yr old gaughter who said It is the first time that I hear a violin cry
Really? Something very special must have happened. Did you lose your virginity?
Ach Stephane in Himmel.....Du hast Du gesungen auf die Geige. Manchmal schau auf die Erde.Danke,Danke.Danke.
Alot is made amongst guitarists of Django's guitar playing, but I honestly believe that what made Django so great as a guitarist is that he was just humbly trying to mimic with the guitar what Grappelli was doing with the fiddle.
Grapelli was the equal of Django in terms of his playing.

It is good to listen when I reading a book
Master of Master unic for ever Grappelli

Genius ❤
Que hermosas melodias, escuchando a este maestro en el dia de mi cumpleaños numero 50
This genius was, well, I said it already. Such beautiful, heartfelt music, with swing and classical along with tone. So identifiable. So brilliant.
Maravilhoso!!!! Do Brasil
Wonderful!!!! From Brasil
สวดยวดดเลยคับลุง👍👍👏👏
Lindo!🎉🎉🎉
Supreme!
oh wow, good share mate. Good on you
ITS lovely
I saw him in Buffalo at the Tralf years ago. His sound captured me. I have never witnessed anything like him.
When I saw Stephan play in London, he was quite old. I called him the best musician I had heard for the fact he made the violin disappear, and his thoughts were entering my head by some other direct route if that makes sense.
It's just ink on paper until a master gives it a go !!!
This is coming to my desert island.
After God, a walk in the winter sun with my darling girl of 34 years, a coffee on the sidewalk - THIS just made my day. Yes, it did!
This is awesome. You've got a subscriber and a fan...
Gosh, thanks and for including playlist and credits.
I love the fact he shows how many takes it took to get that..
Il Paganini del jazz. Indubbiamente.
Fornutate enough to see him live in the 80s in St Albans GB
Super-sweet!
I feel that im in the morning on titanic boot and i come and im listeninig this beatiffull music befourre titanic fall done
Lovely, especially Tournesol, written by the great man himself.
One of the most beautiful melodies written.
Es grande este puñetero violin !!
Me gustó me lo compre en vinilo
Wow
Mio figlio nel pancione si muove ascoltandolo
Sarà un grande jazzista quando crescerà! Mettigli subito uno strumento in mano e poi vedrai 😊 Congratulazioni, ormai dovrebbe essere già nato
Stephane Grappelli was fucking awesome....
why add your lack of words,ah yes popular and vulgar put your vulgar comments on paper and burn it..you may learn from the exercise

AS PART OF MY MORNING MEDITATION STAR DUSR BY G..ENDS -VE THOUGHTS AND POS. TAKES OVER MUSIC FOR INCARCERATED HUMANS ANY THOUGHTS
Tenor banjo
I’ve been playing the violin/fiddle for 46 years and I attribute my love for it from Stephane. I’ve played in symphonies, fusion groups, but couldn’t read music for years. Day one, I picked up my violin and put on a Stephane album of my mom’s and fell in love with this sound…with Grapelli’s stylish and musical taste. I was hooked…wow how this music brings back memories.
Stephan..gay..did not read music..nope..an he did not die of aids ya creeps
Da violin player was openly Gay...yup...so what?
