“…precise ensemble… high degree of
technical mastery… stunning.” ― Soundboard.
One of the most expressive and experienced guitar duos around, Klasinc & Lončar have been concertizing for over twenty years. This husband-and-wife duo has performed at numerous music festivals and concert series across the United States and Europe. Their performances have been described as “eye-opening”, “outstanding”, “one of the best”, a “moving musical experience”, “enlightening”, “sparkling”, and “performed with uncommon virtuosity and musicality of the highest order” by concert presenters and music critics on both continents.
Klasinc & Lončar’s concert programs blend baroque, classical and romantic compositions with Lončar’s original works, transcriptions, and arrangements of Croatian and other Mediterranean folk styles and music of the Viennese tradition. In this concert, they will be joined by their daughter Maya, who will play guitar on the Hungarian Peasant Songs and the Three Latin Dances.
