The World of Krakauer: Three Perspectives of David Krakauer The World of Krakauer: Three Perspectives of David Krakauer

Known simply as “Krakauer” to his fervent following, the world-renowned, Grammy-nominated clarinetist David Krakauer is nothing less than an American original who has embarked on a tremendous journey transforming the music of his Eastern European Jewish heritage into something uniquely contemporary. That journey has lead Krakauer to an astounding diversity of projects and collaborations ranging from solo appearances with symphony orchestras to major festival concerts with his own improvisation based bands. A key innovator in modern klezmer as well as a major voice in classical music, Krakauer brings together elements from these worlds with jazz, funk, and electronica in his various incarnations: from loops and ecstatic improvisation in his band Ancestral Groove to progressive classical composition in the Krakauer-Tagg duo project, Breath and Hammer.
