Guitar virtuosity between Gypsy Swing, Latin and Jazz at Wittelsbacher Schloss
On Saturday, November 28, 2026, the JOSCHO STEPHAN TRIO will perform at the historic Wittelsbacher Schloss Friedberg. Starting at 7:30 PM, the formation connects virtuoso acoustic guitars, swinging rhythms, and stylistic openness to an evening of concerts that brings together jazz classics, blues, Latin, pop, and rock in a distinctive sound language.
When three guitars make the room resonate
At the center is Joscho Stephan, who shapes modern Gypsy Swing with authentic tone, harmonic sophistication, and breathtaking solo technique. Together with Sven Jungbeck and Volker Kamp, a dynamic trio sound emerges, where rhythmic precision, melodic elegance, and spontaneous stage performance intertwine.
From Django Reinhardt to Pop and Rock
The program draws from the tradition of Gypsy Jazz while simultaneously opening it up to new colors. Well-known classics meet original compositions and arrangements influenced by Latin, classical, pop, and rock. The orchestration remains acoustic and transparent: percussive strikes, bouncing accompaniment figures, and rapid solos create an immediate live atmosphere.
An internationally acclaimed guitarist
Joscho Stephan is considered an outstanding representative of the modern acoustic guitar scene. His debut album Swinging Strings was chosen by the US magazine Guitar Player as CD of the month in 1999. Acoustic Guitar Magazine described him as the guitarist for the future of Gypsy Jazz guitar. His concert activity has taken him to Europe, the USA, and Australia, where he has collaborated with renowned musicians such as Tommy Emmanuel, Martin Taylor, Paquito D’Rivera, and James Carter.
Historical setting, vibrant sound
The Wittelsbacher Schloss Friedberg provides the atmospheric setting for this concert experience. The historical architecture meets a precise, direct acoustic guitar sound. Between swinging pulse, bluesy warmth, and virtuosic runs, an audience mood develops that appeals to both connoisseurs of Jazz Manouche and curious concertgoers.
Conclusion: Experience acoustic energy live
The JOSCHO STEPHAN TRIO promises an evening full of musical agility, technical brilliance, and stylistic surprises. Those wanting to experience Gypsy Swing, jazz classics, and modern guitar artistry in a special atmosphere should not miss this concert at Wittelsbacher Schloss Friedberg.
