The Reunion (George Shearing and Stéphane Grappelli album)

The Reunion is a 1977 jazz album featuring pianist George Shearing and violinist Stéphane Grappelli. The album represents a reunion of sorts, as Shearing and Grappelli had collaborated previously, notably on Shearing's 1963 album Shearing & Grappelli Play for Sophisticated Lovers. The Reunion showcases the interplay between Shearing's sophisticated harmonies and Grappelli's lyrical improvisations.

The album typically features standards from the Great American Songbook, often interpreted with a light, swinging feel. The instrumentation usually consists of piano (Shearing), violin (Grappelli), bass, and drums, creating a classic jazz quartet sound. Critically, the album is often praised for the effortless elegance and joyous musical conversation between the two legendary musicians. It is considered a significant example of mainstream jazz and a strong representation of Shearing and Grappelli's individual and collective talents. The recording has been reissued multiple times on various labels.
