About: Laco Déczi

Slovak-born Laco Déczi is one of Central Europe's longest-active jazz trumpeters, with more than six decades on stage. Touring with his New York band Celula, he brings a blend of hard bop and electric fusion that he first honed in Prague's clubs of the 1960s and has kept refining ever since.
