Accordion Maestro Lou Jacklich (Cotati Honorary Director 2016 and past Cotati Festival performer) recently celebrated his 95th birthday. Lou is a highly respected and well-known West Coast electronic accordion pioneer, teacher and artist with nearly eight decades to his credit.
His 33-1/3 RPM LP record, “Lou Jacklich Plays,” (available on Amazon and eBay) consists of classical and pop standards that he creatively arranged on one of the earliest electronic accordions in the late 1950s. The record is available for sale as an eTrack mp3 album with audio samples and career history at: www.musicforaccordion.com/eTracks/inform/jacklich/index.htm
As a special celebration of his 95th birthday, Lou Jacklich has authorized that his mp3 album and updated history be sent free (zipped file for downloading) to all who request during now through November 15, 2023.
