From label:
'The Galloping Wonder Stag can be taken as an organic continuation of the Galloping Coroners. Attila Grandpierre, with the help of his new band mates, who happen to be incredible folk musicians, was able to find a solution for the
seemingly impossible task of raising the Galloping Coroners’ music to a new and higher standard.'
'For the duration of the entire night’s debut performance, we will hear from the Hungarians’ and man’s prehistoric, until now almost unknown and forgotten musical traditions. These are further fused in an organic harmony compiled from the musicians’ own personal stylings encompassing a vast space and time of more than a thousand years of music to the present, influenced by and ancient strength and the magic of folk music interpreted through contemporary sounds, dances and spectacles. The performance was born from the result of several decades of research and collecting from Europe’s and Asia’s horse culture’s magnificent, ancient music. The concert gives new respect and life to Béla Bartók’s folk musical conceptualizations, the horse people’s high culture and to the bearers of these traditions, the
Galloping Wonder Stag Ensemble, and The Galloping Coroners body of
work.' Attila Grandpierre
