A player of this instrument developed a rhythmic pattern that alternates between a grace note into a quarter note and a short, accented quarter note, known as “the pump.” The album Solo Flight collects recordings by one of the first important soloists on this instrument, whose 20-chorus solo on “Rose Room” allowed him to join the Benny Goodman Sextet. In swing, this instrument usually comps staccato quarter notes in Freddie Green voicings. Charlie Christian played this instrument, as did the developer of “jazz manouche.” With violinist Stéphane Grappelli, a player of this instrument founded the Quintette du Hot Club de France, which recorded his songs “Minor Swing” and “Nuages.” For 10 points, what instrument was played by the three-fingered Romani virtuoso Django Reinhardt? ■END■
