Who is the fiddler?

I'm still learning who the recent gypsy jazz masters are. There is a U-Tube video on the web called the "Django Reinhardt Tribute" - Swing Gitan, with Angelo Debarre and Birelli Lagrene. I'm not sure which one the fiddler is...but he's great! One of the best I've heard. Who is he? Thanks!

I think it's Florin Niculescu ... ?

Yes, I've since learned that it is indeed Florin, and he has become my favorite fiddler!

But I think it is very nice to see that there are other who are new to the gypsy jazz music...! But I am so into the music that I am planning a little party for my friends to get into that music, too. Just finished doing some little leaflets for them. I think it will be fun - and Florin Niculescu will surely be on my playlist...

I've been a fan of, and playing the music for years. I'm just new to some of the players. Your link to the leaflet doesn't work!
