by John Lewis
Django was written by John Lewis, composed in 1954 as a tribute to guitarist Django Reinhardt. Django is a slow, elegiac jazz standard whose dirge‑like opening and carefully structured form reflect pianist John Lewis’s interest in blending classical techniques with jazz improvisation for the Modern Jazz Quartet. The piece became one of the group’s signature works and is widely regarded as a major composition of modern jazz, frequently recorded and anthologized.
