Formed in 1992 by three graduates of the Academy of Music in Krakow, Kroke were initially associated with klezmer music with strong Balkan influences. Nowadays heavily influenced by jazz, contemporary and ethnic music imbued with their own stunning improvisations, the trio have honed a totally unique style which has attracted attention from renowned artists and audiences the world over, including Nigel Kennedy, Steven Spielberg and Peter Gabriel.
“What drags me into Kroke’s music so successfully is this spiritual reality they have… it’s honesty and sincerity in their music.”
