With his new formation Wawau Adler Gypsy Bop ft. Jan Prax, this band opens a fascinating new chapter in the world of jazz: the Gypsy Bop style. This musical innovation stems from the vision of uniting two great traditions – the rousing, earthy sound of Gypsy Jazz à la Django Reinhardt with the intellectual depth and rhythmic complexity of bebop, as shaped by icons such as Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie or John Coltrane. What once remained only an idea – the meeting of these giants – is brought to life by this formation. Together with the internationally renowned saxophonist Jan Prax, they succeed in building a bridge between the styles that once rocked the jazz clubs of Paris and New York. Gypsy Bop is more than a mere fusion – it is an independent sound language, a passionate homage and at the same time a look ahead. Wauwau Adler invites the audience to go on this musical journey – from the warmth of gypsy jazz to the expressiveness of modern bebop. A sound that connects generations and retells the jazz tradition.
