Sam Opstaele Quartet
Sam Opstaele Quartet is an ensemble that brings the vibrant, soul-stirring sounds of Gypsy jazz to life with a unique twist.
Rooted in the tradition of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli, this band combines the spirit of Gypsy swing with their own inventive approach.
At the heart of their sound is the guitar player Sam Opstaele whose virtuosity, technique and deep passion for the genre provide a foundation for the group’s intricate melodies.
The addition of the clarinet adds an extra layer of warmth and expressiveness, creating a beautifully rich texture that evokes the golden age of Parisian jazz while feeling fresh and exciting.
Whether performing in intimate venues or on larger stages, their energy is infectious, transporting audiences to a time when jazz was alive with spontaneity and heart.
