This is just something beyond my comprehension. Just spectacular. Wish there will be something like that in the jazz industry.

[@lucianojadur]

I’ve never expected a django ft. Mozart in my entire life. Great solo.

[@bajtucha]

Can't stop watching this. 11 years now.

[@letterfromgon]

4:01 He played along the motif from Mozart's Symphony No.40, didn't he? That's wonderful!

[@doganimre3722]

Yes he plays Mozart 40

[@SekkMuddle]

I love how bold Peter is in this one... its so easy to be cliche with this tune... but he did his best to avoid that entirely! :) Great stuff man

[@jkg466]

The piano solo was the best part of this song, holy shit! :) The sax was great too, ofc.

[@Chuck88keys]

Yeah. He really knocked it out of the park. Great job.

[@LMatters1]

just wow!! And he never missed a note even with that silly cameraman being so close.

[@benjaminfary8723]

I prefered the piano imo

[@HVCPfilmproducties]

[@nericko28]

OMG....

[@schwa6970]

Man how do these guys play like this? SMOKIN!! If you like this check out The Rosenberg Trio at the Nice Jazz Festival 2012. Anyone that can play Djangos music is a true master.

[@AntonGoudsmit]

petertjoo!

[@JamesIanGilliam]

A "t" is missing in the title

[@brianosullivan5441]

Any general thoughts on including a piano in this style ?

[@davesnow7133]

Brian O'Sullivan i think it's amazing

[@fredgarvinMP]

The piano sounded a lot better than the sax. But then, I for the most part can't stand thte saxophone.

[@bandido649]

why can't you stand the saxophone?

[@bethbartlett5692]

@@bandido649 (They can remind one of a "duck call" at times and they often sound flat. In this case, its part of the raw ambiance of Jazz in Paris in the 1920' s) But, then when they don't ... Well that's Ace Cannon, "Tiff" I played Woodwind"s" and Percussion, Bongo/Conga. Oboe, Clarinet, Sax ... Clarinet can sound like a good Violin... Pure clear perfection. 😉

[@twayburn]

"Reactionary" is probably the kindest word I know to describe the saxophone solo.

[@j.h.b4294]

composition of this lick ? 4:02

[@IMRezpected]

Mozart, Symphony No. 40.

[@milosnovotny2571]

Yes. Check out Klazz Brothers - Mambozar.

[@steinberger95]

*****

[@Nilko48]

Hasta ahora no he escuchado ninguna versión que siquiera se acerque a la original, que es preciosa, simple, donde radica su belleza, sin embargo esta interpretación es la peor que he escuchado, un mamarracho, un crimen, un musicidio, de escucharla, Django se revolvería en su tumba...debería existir una ley que prohiba estas aberraciones, por respeto al tema original y a sus autores.

[@diazmaulana8195]

orang gila ini sih...

[@olddoggeleventy2718]

Well now, wasn't that special!

[@Fullofpies]

it's like my ears are being made love to!
