American clarinet virtuoso David Krakauer will play the Kongresowa Hall in Warsaw March 12 as part of the Era Jazzu series of concerts.

A unique blend of traditional Jewish klezmer music and jazz has brought Krakauer worldwide success. He is equally at ease performing jazz standards by Sidney Bechet or Thelonious Monk as avant-garde pieces by John Cage or John Zorn. He is also a talented classical musician and plays venues from the prestigious Carnegie Hall in New York to klezmer clubs throughout the United States, as well as the biggest festivals around the world. He has been singled out for praise by Time Magazine for his recording of "The Dreams and Prayers of Isaac the Blind," together with The Kronos Quartet.
