MIKELEIZ-ZUCCHI
DUO
Winners of the Royal Overseas League Annual Music Competition’s Mixed Ensemble Prize in 2021 and City Music Foundation Artists (2022), the Mikeleiz-Zucchi Duo’s repertoire spans everything from reimagined traditional works to modern repertoire and improvisation, all vividly rendered by the unique combination of saxophone and accordion. Made up of Canadian saxophonist David Zucchi and Spanish accordionist Iñigo Mikeleiz-Berrade, the duo was formed in the spirit of curiosity and open-mindedness.

Support our debut album!
We are currently raising funds to support the recording, promotion, and distribution of Contradance, which we are recording this autumn with Delphian Records. Contradance, explores an eclectic range of dance-related repertoire. It features their own arrangements of works by Maurice Ravel, Béla Bartók, and Enrique Granados, along with brilliant new compositions written especially for the duo (and supported by City Music Foundation, the Marchus Trust, and the Vaughan Williams Foundation) by award-winning composers Alex Paxton and Aileen Sweeney.
We’re very excited to realise this project, and any support is greatly appreciated - check out the various rewards we’ve offered, and feel free to donate at the link below to help make Contradance a reality!
