Guy Klucevsek

Born in 1947, Guy Klucevsek is a preeminent accordion player and composer, who has been a major contributor to the accordion renaissance of the last 25 years. Klucevsek is one of relatively few accordion players active in new music, jazz and free improvisation. His music reverberates with sounds of the ballroom, the beer garden and the concert hall, fusing elements of regional accordion styles with jazz and avant-garde music. He has performed and recorded with numerous musicians including Laurie Anderson, Anthony Braxton, Dave Douglas and John Zorn. Klucevsek held his concert Music for 548 Reeds at The Kitchen in the winter of 1976. In addition, he performed Due Virtuosi in collaboration with American clarinetist David Krakauer at The Kitchen in the winter of 1999. For more information please visit http://www.guyklucevsek.com/.
