- In August 2012 we were lucky enough to have Tommy Emmanuel perform here at the Australian Institute of Music (AIM). He also brought 2 very special guests Frank Vignola and Vinny Raniolo from New York.
Here Tommy, Frank and Vinny perform a fantastic "Hot Club" -style medley. The first song is Hungarian Dance No.5 by Johannes Brahms. The second song is Swing 39 Swing 42 by Django Reinhardt.

Tommy Emmanuel -- www.tommyemmanu...

Emmanuel's unique style - he calls it simply "finger style" - is akin to playing a guitar the way a pianist plays a piano. While Tommy has many imitators, few approach his mastery. He even has his own annual guitar festivals, "Tommy Fest," in Newport News, Virginia, Louisville, KY and Dortmund, Germany.
Jazz legend Chet Atkins was one of the first people who inspired Emmanuel to pick up a guitar. Decades later, Atkins himself became one of Emmanuel's biggest fans, and is responsible for declaring Emmanuel a "Certified Guitar Player" - an honour shared by only two other people in the world (Jerry Reed and John Knowles). "I think he's probably the greatest finger-picker in the world today," Atkins said a few months prior to his death in 2001. "He's inventive, fearless and has a flawless sense of rhythm. You can't watch Tommy perform and not feel happy."
"I've spent my whole life from the age of 4 playing music and entertaining people. I never wanted to do anything else," says Emmanuel. "Playing the guitar is much more than a career for me. It's a passion ... my life. The best thing in the world is to make people happy and bring them together through my music. Because I'm touring so much these days, the whole world has become my home."
In his storied career, the Grammy-nominated Emmanuel has set sales records that have yet to be broken and performed alongside hundreds of other musical legends including Chet Atkins, EricClapton, Sir George Martin, Hank Marvin and Joe Walsh. Olivia Newton-John, Al Jarreau and Sheena Easton have also recorded songs written by Emmanuel.
The consummate musician was voted Rolling Stone (Australia) Magazine's "Most Popular Guitarist" for two consecutive years and has earned four Platinum and three Gold albums. When his album "Dare to be Different" went Platinum, it was the first instrumental album to do so in Australia in more than 25 years and has not been topped since its release.
In Australia, Emmanuel's music and life are legendary.
At 83 yrs of age I thought I had seen it all. Started with my dad who loved Django Reinhardt and the Hot club of Quincy. Since then seeing Tommy Emmanuel, Joscho Stephan, Frank Vignola, I am in heaven, and listen to them most nights. I hope these magnificent guitar players realize the joy they are giving to so many people who can watch and listen to them on you tube. You have brought so much joy to me. Thank you all again
Some of the best music ever written. I love this stuff. Sometimes makes me wonder if I am from a past life? This music just makes me feel good!

I am 70 and grew up in France. Django & Hot Club music was always present in our house.
Nothing but respect my friend.
Great reply. I’m with you all the way. It’s joyous music …
There ought to be a federal law prohibiting this it's just so unfair. I've seen Tommy and Frank together twice and my jaw is permanently damaged from hitting the floor. And it's not just speed for the sake of speed, it's so totally musical.
Really like the way Tommy and Frank leave room for the rhythm guy who is probably way better than the likes of me could ever hope to be.
Screw all the rock guitar gods. These guys are waaaaaaaaay ahead of all of them.
Amen brother, my father was pretty well known jazz guitar player in the 40’s and 50’s. And over the years I forgot how good music was then . You tube gives me a master class every night in guitar. My son said that he read an article that your 60’s are your most productive years. I told him to give me another 6 months and I am going to give my family a concert . Maybe my 19 year old daughter will admire (and like) me😊
For those who don't know Vinny also riffs like a champion.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME! ARE YOU EVEN HUMAN! Stunning.
What I don't quite get is that I have been following great guitarists all my when I'm 64 life, and have only just discovered this bloke...he is literally the best guitarist in the world, as well as having such personality, joy and star quality..lets get him on the pyramid at Glasto without delay!!!
the guitarist on the right makes absolutely no mistakes, everything he plays sounds sooo clear
Even the rhythm guy is probably so amazing that I wouldn't believe it.
Это просто супер желаю вам ребята долгих лет чтобы радовали нас.
Things are always fun when Tommy is around
Yeah... God bless him!
Vinnie locks that groove down. I could watch these three forever. Vinnie is also a great guitarist in his own right. I watched him cut everyone's head once, Frank included.
So glad that Tommy loves "Swing 42" so much - every time it gets more exciting!
Listening to these guys is pure ear-candy....Tommy is just unbelievable.....
Tommy, I can not express how much I, as a fellow player, appreciate the talent. Thanks for being an inspiration.
Vinnie is a fookin human metronome
underrated comment
Solid as a rock!
....yess.... :-)
Instead of giving up, use it as inspiration. I got to see TE perform on Thursday night, then last night got to do a workshop with Frank and Vinny at Boulevard music. A couple of hours later they gave an awesome concert. I am a very intermediate level and am doing the exercises Frank recommended. Never give up the guitar!!!! We need a world filled with music. :-)
Tommy has brought back Frank and Vinny for the Palace of Fine Arts in a few weeks in San Francisco. We all enjoyed them so much last year!
Caught Frank and Vinnie this evening in Chicago. Caught Tommy last year. Thanks for the CD, Frank! Greatest players, and great guys.
Tommy Emmanuel is the King of guitars! (The best to you all from Norway!)
Great music...
so much happiness
Agreed. Why do the "Pop" and "Rock" stars get so caught up in ego?
I'm speechless..My GOD!! What an amazing musicians!
Watching Tommy play amazes me. He mostly - always plays a Maton without a cutaway . How is that possible.
This is one of those, once in a lifetime combinations of talent ,that was meant to happen;and I'm grateful for it.
incredible musicianship, very tasteful playing
... grosse technique pour une musique légère,... légère,... légère ... de vrais pros qui respectent un public exigeant en livrant avec le sourire un travail impeccable et hautement artistique ... la "classe"!
Шедевральная тройка,каждый из которых профессионал с большой буквы! Я счастлив что могу слышать и видеть это волшебство!Артистизм высшей степени!
Its almost too much to handle! How much better can it get
makes the rest of us want to disassemble our guitars and build them into bird houses. I was blessed to sit on the front row and meet Tommy before hand , by far, the best Christmas present ever!!
There is nothing that is done or not done on a guitar that Tommy can’t do.
Is Django smiling or what? Vinny so awesome and understated but his solid rhythm keeps it all together! T & f ; great seeing them "dueling" and having fun!!!!!!
My husband and my son saw Tommy tonight in a show in PA. They both were amazed.
It doesnt get any better thanthis 😢😊
The harmonies are so tight that it almost sounds like an effect. Bravo
These two played with Tommy the past two years in SF, they are great.
I love it when you get three fantastic guitar players together, and when they play it's just perfect harmony. They bounce off each other so well and have so much fun
What there is no need for are your crude, demeaning comments. They're having fun while playing. They're relaxed. They are concentrating. Is that wrong? Is it against the rules to look at each other?
I would have enjoyed it more if they closed their eyes and listened to the music like Tommy does when he plays solo. There is no need need for these unsavoury glances at each other, it is very disconcerting.
Only because you make it that way. I'm not looking for it, so I didn't see it.

It seems a pity that you felt the need to come here with your repressed homosexual desires, to make a comment on something you know very little about.
This video is about the beauty and symmetry of music mixed with the amazing talents of three virtuosos.
If you attend an orchestrated concert, do you also sit there studying the faces of the players looking for some man you would like to have sex with?
Along with your mouth, you should also keep your hands off your crotch, shut your eyes and enjoy the music & revel only in the fact that you are lucky to be alive to hear such virtuosity.
heelfan1234 You have obviously never played guitar with anyone else. Do you look at people when you talk to them, or do you just close your eyes the whole time? Communication is a good thing when playing with others.
I saw Tommy supported by The Frank Vignola Trio at the De Montfort Hall, Leicester (UK) some years ago and after his set Tommy ,Frank and Vinny finished the evening off with a Django-style set which really brought the house down-this is bringing back great memories!!
Who else wanted it to go on forever ?😃
This is one of the most entertaining videos I’ve seen in a long while. They are the best. ♥️🎶🥀🎶♥️🥰😍Chris.
it just cant get better than this can it??????? bloody awesome
way to much talent at the same place!
i love it!
the hot club of django's legacy is in good hands with the salute of these guys.
i must have watched this 100 times - so good
tommy, your a bloody legend mate.
Masters of the genre. I'm sure D'jango was smiling that night.
this is what i love about gypsy jazz its so unpretencious whereas alot of the other kinds of jazz are so up themselves
This is just extraordinary in every respect. Happy to have magic like this recorded and shared with the world.
ah dude, datz was awesome. this new generation needs to see a real show like this.
Frank Vignola and Howard Alden are the some of the the last keepers of the flame
I never tire of watching these guys. They are masters at their craft who have put in hours of practice (for Tommy and Frank add up those hours in decades!!!) and when onstage make it all look so easy. AND they have fun while doing it. They are all wonderful men who enjoy what they do and want to share their joy with the world and bring a smile to a face. Thanks for posting this!!!
vinnie is a legendary rhythm player, and no doubt much much more
"Django lives forever thanks to these Guys
I think I'll give up the guitar and take up knitting! Fantastic trio!!!
It's nice to see Viny SOLO!!!!
So much fun to watch these masters...you forget how much work it is...
WOW! My ears can barely keep up! My fingers NEVER would.
Gods of jazz ... beautiful that Hungy... what a fun ... Thank you

It probably can't get any better
en plus de la compétence ,la bonne humeur! bon vent les guitaristes!!
So awesome...just amazing...wow
Absolutely enchanting. No other words.
Implicit shared beat. Wonderful.
There's more great music in the first 30 seconds of this video than most guitarplayers can make in a week.
Just so damn much musical awesomeness in one video
We simply love Tommy in all sizes, shapes & forms - amazing musician with amazing friends ! Go Tommy !
i swear i thought the guitars would suddenly burst into flames!
So much fun they appear to be enjoying themselves just as it should be.
Very few guitarists can play in so many styles. A genius and always looks as he's thoroughly enjoying himself. A joy.
I imagine myself chilling I a Spanish bar somewhere, with a glass of 🍺 with these guys playing, delightful.
Simply incredibly incredible

This tune is now stuck in my head, I love the dance at the end.

These guys are such : " Geniuses " and Tommy is so funny !

Brilliant as usual and the two others guitarist were brilliant also. He is an inspiration to all musicians even a hacked out piano player like me LOL Always love Django and Stephan's music - Hot Club Quintet du France. Loved those harmonies in the second song.
This music is so joyous. I love, LOVE, LOVE IT!!!!!!
Can only state that I cannot describe.
