He was a child student of Stephane Grappelli and does a fair imitation
of him.

He recorded a CD early in his career called Strad Jazz with the
pianist Peter Pettinger. It was recorded in the spare studio time
after a Classical recording and has some pretty good tracks on
it. It appears to be out of print now.

I guess since he has "reinvented" himself he has left the jazz
behind. ;-(
