Concert accordionist Merima Klju\u010do imbues a dizzying variety of music with playing that moves with its depth of understanding and experience. Whether performing as a guest soloist with world renowned orchestras and ensembles, or as composer and performer for theater, movie and radio productions, the soulful traditions of her instrument are not only given a unique voice, but also new life and meaning. Klju\u010do\u2019s passion and mastery in both traditional and contemporary music allows her to explore new artistic dimensions combining them in a compelling and unique way. Her multimedia work, <\/span>The Sarajevo Haggadah: Music of the Book <\/span>(2014), traces the dramatic story of one of Jewish culture’s most treasured manuscripts, using the musical traditions of Spain, Italy, Austria, and Bosnia-Herzegovina. As the producer, composer, and arranger for her highly rated albums Zumra, Aritmia (together with world renowned guitarist Miroslav Tadi\u0107) and Lume (with Jelena Milu\u0161i\u0107), she has created a multi-layered interpretation of a musical tradition she treasures.<\/span> http:\/\/merimakljuco.com<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
