He was inspired to play jazz after hearing Joe Venuti perform with Paul Whiteman's orchestra. Grappelli co-founded the Quintette du Hot Club de France with guitarist Django Reinhardt, and he went on to collaborate with such figures as Yehudi Menuhin, Yo Yo Ma, Paul Simon, McCoy Tyner and Oscar Peterson. | JazzCorner | Facebook
