Click the play button to listen
Guy Klucevsek, one of my musical heroes, died in May 2025 at age 77.He was one of the world's most versatile and highly respected accordionists, and a major contributor to the accordion renaissance of the last 25 years.
When you listen to his music, you need to forget everything you thought you knew about the accordion. Klucevsek's music simply defies categorization, and though he never considered himself a jazz musician, he collaborated on a number of jazz recordings with Dave Douglas, John Zorn and Bill Frisell . If you love the accordion, this hour of wholly original accordion music is for you If you've never embraced the accordion, open your ears and explore the world of Klucevsek's music.
