Abstract
Josip Klima (1927. – 2012.) is one of the most important Croatian violinists
in the second half of the twentieth century. He acted as a violin virtuoso, orchestral
and chamber musician as well as a violin pedagogue. Musicians, audience
and critics were attracted by his universality and personality. General public
had known him as a player of salon and popular music. Besides professional
activities, he also payed attention to amateur performing. He received numerous
distinguished acknowledgements and awards. In this article his artistic and
pedagogical lifepath is presented chronologically. However, there are some discrepances
between primary documentation and secondary literature about his
work, at which it was pointed in this paper.
Keywords
