Julian Joseph looks at the career of the virtuoso French violinist Stephane Grappelli, who rose to fame in the 1930s alongside Django Reinhardt in the Quintet of the Hot Club of France. Julian Joseph is joined by Coleridge Goode, who recorded with Grappelli both in the Quintet and in a group led by pianist George Shearing.
Music from the archive includes a concert given by Grappelli's trio in 1983, featuring guitarist Martin Taylor and bassist Jack Sewing.
