Grammy award-winning Jason Vieaux is described by NPR as “perhaps the most precise and soulful classical guitarist of his generation.” We’ve previously enjoyed having him on our series several times. This time, he brings accordionist Julien Labro, one of the foremost accordion and bandoneon players in both the classical and jazz genres. As described by Jason, expect something “entertaining, fun, exciting, and virtuosic in the unusual pairing of these two instruments.”
