Jazz in the Garden: Mango fan Django

Jazz in the Garden: Mango fan Django

Presented by Grace and St. Stephen's Episcopal Church at Grace and St. Stephen's Episcopal Church

Mango fan Django has been playing Gypsy Jazz in Colorado since 1998 and is known for a unique style of acoustic guitar swing that has delighted audiences of all ages. Inspired by a Gypsy jazz style invented in the 1930's by guitarist Django Reinhardt and the Hot Club of France, Mango fan Django's sound also sends a wink and a nod to jump swing hepcats of the 40's, the sassy Caribbean and Latin bands of the 50's, 60's and beyond, and contemporary musicians from today's Gypsy jazz scene.

Jazz in the Garden offers great music, gorgeous gardens and a perfect place for families and friends to gather over picnics. The concerts, which began in 2010 as a way to extend the parish’s commitment to building community through music, are free to all.  All concerts are scheduled subject to state and local restrictions on gatherings and events, but we are working hard to bring you a summer of great jazz!

The 2022 season begins on May 27 and continues on alternate Fridays through August 19. Bring a picnic, lawn chairs and blankets, and get ready to be relax with some of the best music to be found in the city—new, old, tried and true you don't want to miss a single one!
