My name is Alister Price, and I studied in Bulgaria, as well as with Macedonian and Turkish musicians in Australia. I have an extensive performance history with a range of Australian bands: Xenos (Roma/Balkan), Opa (Serbian), Yugotones (Serbian), Byron and The Gypsy Cats (Greek), Super Rats (Romanian), Kefi Band (Greek), Silvia Entcheva (Bulgarian), Chalga Party (Balkan) and Orfeevi Ritmi (Bulgarian).

I currently live in Canberra, where I teach music and perform. I also have a Bachelor of Music with Honours, majoring in composition.

In 2024 I travelled to Bulgaria for my third time, taking accordion and clarinet lessons. I also spent some time in Bucharest, Romania, having accordion lessons and listening to music. Here's a small clip of me playing with one of my teachers, renowned accordionist Plamen Dimitrov.
