Guitar greats Philip Catherine and Paulo Morello got to know and appreciate each other in 2010 jamming together at the Burghausen Jazz Festival. In 2017 they teamed up with bassist Sven Faller to start a real
collaboration. The chemistry of this trio turned out to be just right and lead to a number of well-received concerts.
After successfully continuing their tour in 2018 they decided it was time to document their efforts in a recording. They named it after one of their favourite compositions by European jazz pioneer Django Reinhardt: “Manoir de mes Reves”. A lot of the group’s repertoire is based on material originating from Paris in the 50’s and 60’s - compositions, that Philip Catherine was fond of when he was a young man - like “Les Amoureux des Bancs Publics” by Georges Brassens
