"On the present album we invoke Gregorian melodies, ballads, laments and love songs, dance melodies of medieval,
renaissance and modern origin, recalling the festivities, joy and sorrow of generations that have passed. All this is music of the Hungarian speaking minority in
Moldva (Moldavia), Romania, the Csángó people, that we have been collecting from their elders and their grandsons and granddaughters. The past has a message for the present in all these
wonderful melodies, the heart of time is beating in them."
Zurgo Ensemble
The Zurgo Ensemble on this CD release
present the music and traditions of the ‘Csango’ Hungarians living in Moldavia.
Since 1992 they have collected dance music and songs from the Moldavian Csangos and play
them on traditional instruments such as the violin, kaval, kobza, whistle and drum etc. In
their native Hungary they are regular performers of their art and have appeared on many
radio and television programmes.
East of the Carpathian mountains is the territory of Moldavia, now a part
of Romania, and it is here in the 12th and 13th centuries that
Hungarians settled. Whilst still preserving certain ancient Hungarian influences, the
music of the Csangos has inevitably been touched by the music from their immediate
neighbours. So within the music Zurgo play you can easily hear the Balkan music of the
Turkish, Slavic, Romanian people.
