About Bester Quartet

Bester Quartet is a new development of The Cracow Klezmer Band that was formed in 1997 in Krakow, Poland as an initiative of Jaroslaw Bester - a young musician, composer and accordionist. The group is made up of four instrumentalists, classically trained musicians. The quartet performs a vast stylistic range that borrows from classical, jazz and vanguard music, including contemporary chamber music where improvisation constitutes a foundation to build on some unique instrumental forms.
