MikeDunnAuthorToday in Music History May 16, 1953: Romani guitar wizard and jazz legend, Django Reinhardt, died. Reinhardt was the first major jazz talent to emerge from Europe and is still probably the best. He formed the Paris-based Quintette du Hot Club de France in 1934 with violinist Stephane Grappelli. This group was one of the first jazz groups anywhere to feature guitar as a lead instrument. Reinhardt toured briefly with Duke Ellington in 1946. He died unexpectedly of a stroke at age 43. In 1928, he had an accident that left him only able to use his first two fingers on his left hand. This forced him to invent a new technique that allowed him to become even more proficient than he had been prior to the accident. He never learned to read or write music and played completely by ear.

Today in Labor History, May 16: Romani Resistance Day, commemorating the Roma and Sinti people who fought the fascists during World War II. The date was chosen due to a Holocaust survivor stating that on May 16, 1944, there was a rebellion of Roma detainees at the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. However subsequent research by the Auschwitz Museum discovered that this date was most likely incorrect. It was actually in early April that a number of Roma prisoners refused orders from the SS to leave to work in Germany. Instead, a Polish prisoner was ordered to make a list of Roma able to work to be transported later. By 2 August 1944, those Roma able to work had been transported elsewhere, when the SS came to take the others to the gas chambers. The prisoners armed themselves with crowbars and fought back, but were eventually overcome and gassed.

Charlie McHenryIt’s May 6th, St. George’s Day…so I’d be remiss if I didn’t post the appropriate musical anthem to the day as well as to Spring. Ederlezi is a well known and loved song in much of Southern Europe, and has been translated from the original #Romani into Serbo-Croatian, Polish, Romanian and Greek. Goran Bregovich’s version with full Gypsy brass band is a much-loved version, but I rather prefer this ‘softer’ version. #Roma #StGeorge #Spring #EthnoMusicology #music https://youtu.be/Agihddf35js?si=5nWg1eINWO7apHji

SaveraJust learned that 500K #romani died in #Auschwitz. I’m from the #Punjab where they originated. It boggles my mind that a thousand people left a thousand years ago and now they are in the millions and the world is so very small that I run into them daily and we don’t know each other. And the world is so very cruel.
