Uploaded January 2019 | Updated September 2026, 15 hours ago

HCQ STRUT:: An original tune by Grappelli and Reinhardt recorded in 1939 in London. In this video I attempt to breakdown the melody (the first time through the tune at least) to learn it.

Here's a version of the original

You can download the backing track FREE here:

Just enter $0 in the field (unless you are feeling generous, of course).

Or use the channel's backing track:

If you have a tune or solo you'd like me to breakdown just let me know in the comments :-)
