Verlaine - Michel Warlop

Michel Warlop (January 23, 1911 – March 20, 1947) was a French jazz violinist, also in Michel Warlop et son orchestre.
He was a contemporary of Didi Duprat and of Stephane Grappelli, with whom he played often.
Warlop was one of France's early native stars on the violin; he accompanied singers Maurice Chevalier and Germaine Sablon in the mid-1930s, and worked with Stephane Grappelli and Django Reinhardt from 1934 to 1937. In the second half of the 1930s he played in the Jazz du Poste Parisien and with accordionist Louis Richardet, as well as with Grappelli and Eddie South in 1937.
