The Chicagoland Italian American Professionals will host a series of concerts by world-renowned accordionist Cory Pesaturo in October.
Known by his stage name, C Pez, Pesaturo is the only accordionist to graduate from the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston and the only person to win the world championship “triple crown” in acoustic, digital and jazz accordion. In 2017, Pesaturo broke the Guinness world record for marathon accordion playing, performing on stage in Austria for 32 hours and 14 minutes.
