David Krakauer - Checkpoint (2014) [Hi-Res]

David Krakauer - Checkpoint (2014) [Hi-Res]

BAND/ARTIST: David Krakauer

Widely considered one of the greatest clarinetists on the planet, David Krakauer has been praised internationally as a key innovator in modern klezmer as well as a major voice in classical music.

He has shared the stage with a wide array of artists such as the Klezmatics, Fred Wesley, Itzhak Perlman, Socalled, Eiko and Koma, Leonard Slatkin and Iva Bitova while being sought after by such composers as Danny Elfman, Osvaldo Golijov, David Del Tredici, John Zorn, George Tsontakis, Mohammed Fairouz and Wlad Marhulets to interpret their works.

In addition, he has performed with renowned string quartets including the Kronos, Tokyo and the Emerson and as soloist with orchestras such as the Orquestra Sinfonica de Madrid, the Brooklyn Philharmonic, the Dresdener Philharmonie and the Detroit Symphony, among many others.

He plays an ancestral and traditional music, with very diverse modern influences. In this album, he collaborates with the master of funk, Abraham In, the Klezmer hip hop pioneer, Socalled, and the brass instruments of the Klezmer Madness band, for an amazing klezmer-funk dance party!
