| Description: | Bireli Lagrene recorded his first LP ‚Routes to Django’ in May 1980 when he was just 13 years old. It was received by the listening public with great enthusiasm. "It was hard to believe when I heard the delicate rhythm patterns and fast runs being played in this brillant and relaxed way" (Dr. Ulrich Olshausen in an article published in the ‚Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung’). After being published, ‚Routes to Django’ instantly appeared in a list of best records compiled quarterly by German critics. The German press, ranging from ‚dpa’ to the ‚Bild’, had their sensation when the jury of the ‚German Newcomer Contest’ in Würzburg elected the winners. A young gypsy turned out to be the most promising young jazz musician. Largely self-taught, he cannot read music and is only slightly bigger than his guitar. It all fit nicely into the cliché of Bireli being a child prodigy. But before getting that kind of publicity, Bireli had already built up a considerable reputation among German jazz fans as a jazz performer. He had toured jazz and folk clubs and had also done some TV appearances. He had been invited to the ‚German Jazz Festival’ in Frankfurt and was the surprise act of the Newcomer concert. Bireli received nationwide attention when he was presented on ‚Bios Bahnhof’, a German TV show and was also featured in an article published by the weekly magazine ‚Stern’ | |
