Dorado Schmidt (1957-)

Dorado Schmidt is a well known French composer, guitarist and violinist in gypsy jazz.  He is best known for his “Bossa Dorado,” “Natacha,” and “Tchwolo Swing” from the soundtrack to the French documentary film Latcho Drom (“Safe Journey”).

Here is a version of “Bossa Dorado” performed by the Rosenberg Trio.  The Rosenberg Trio was formed in 1989.  It is influenced by the gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt.  Stochelo Rosenberg is the lead guitarist, Nous’che Rosenberg is the rhythm guitarist, and Nonnie Rosenberg is the bass player.  Enjoy.
