Claudio Jacomucci is an Italian accordion performer and composer whose virtuosity extends across classical repertoire and contemporary music, constantly pushing the boundaries of what is expected from the accordion as an instrument. Classically trained, Jacomucci has won acclaim for his technical prowess and expressive depth, often marrying the intricate musical discipline of the past with the explorative avant-garde of the present. With a penchant for innovation, he has been involved in developing the microtonal accordion, allowing him to explore musical expressions in a way traditional accordions cannot.

His discography reflects a diverse range of musical interests, from the historically informed interpretations of Johann Sebastian Bach's works to the pioneering "Le Città Invisibili," which showcases the unique soundscapes possible with the microtonal accordion. "Arte Della Fuga" and "Orpheus' Ballad" demonstrate his ability to reinterpret complex counterpoint music, while albums such as "Cool Memories" and "Beyond" reveal a modernist streak, blending various musical traditions into a unique synthesis. "Wonderlands," "Road Runner," and "Workers Union" are further testaments to Jacomucci's commitment to exploring the role of the accordion in contemporary music, challenging audiences and delighting critics with his innovative performances and compositions.
