The name alone says it all; Ismael Reinhardt, born 1976, comes from
a family that has already produced many well-known musicians.
For example the legends Django and Schnuckenack Reinhardt, just to name the
two most famous. Growing up amongst musicians like Zipflo Reinhardt, Schnuckenack Reinhardt,Titi Winterstein and others, it was no surprise that Ismael had already begun to play the guitar and violin at the age of 6, influenced by Django Reinhardt,
George Benson and Stephan Grappelli.
At 12 years old, Ismael was invited to his first jazz festival.
Then he expanded his abilities by learning to play piano and starting to
sing - his music was strongly influenced by Frank Sinatra, which made
him even more popular. His flexibility and his ability to always produce
a surprise rapidly brought him many fans.
Many appearances in jazz clubs and on the concert stage followed.
Ismael has now made a name for himself and is well respected by musician
greats such as Zipflo Reinhardt, Bobi Falter, Titi Winterstein and others,
who always enjoy making music with him.
Influenced by Stephan Grapelli's violin style, by the guitar
work of George Benson and in homage to the great Frank Sinatra,
Ismael and his first-rate trio (piano, bass & drums) take their
audiences on an adventurous journey...
