'Karikás Ensemble was founded in 1978. The choice of name Karikas refers to an everyday implement used by the shepherds living in Hortobagy. In choosing the name the members of the ensemble want to make it clear that they come from Debrecen the capital of Hortobagy. Their object is twofold: not only do they intend to reproduce traditional music, but they also seek to transform authentic pieces by means of the multitude of musical instruments and their knowledge of music. They search for new sounds, rhythms and contrasts always emphasising the importance and substance of melodies. They have won widespread professional acknowledgement thanks to the release of this album. 
 In addition to being rich in ideas they magnificently fit in with the 'sound world' of folk music. The performers play each instrument with style and at a high standard. They have managed to protect and preserve the character and spirit of folk music. Throughout of their existence of nearly twenty years they have given a good number of greatly successful performances in concerts and festivals both in Hungary and abroad (Finland, Poland, Austria and Russia).'
