Bruno Krajcar (duet/ trio)

Bruno Krajcar marked 30 years of his musical work with a recent festive concert in the Pula theater, and this year he released the album Istrael, which was created as part of the Itraditional Project – Krajcar’s idea that Istrian ethno music should become a recognizable Croatian export musical product. After the inclusion of Istrian traditional music on the UNESCO list of protected world intangible cultural heritage, this idea received an additional impetus. www.brunokrajcar.com
