Everybody knows klezmer music, but what we can hear on this exceptional
album is the ancestor of klezmer - the forgotten old Jewish music of the
Carpathian Basin.
Muzsikás has recoded these songs after years of research, which produced
interesting results - for example collecting music from gypsies, authentic
players of klezmer, or finding instruments such as the guitar-like 'zongura'
or drum with cymbal. The results of this research are all here on this
wonderful album.
The beautiful trustworthy voice of Márta Sebestyén brings a special
breath to this recording.
'... Hungary's finest active folk troupe... inexhaustible themes handled by superb musicians.'
The Washington Post
'Hungary's leading folk ensemble...'
Gramaphone
'The ebullient music must have been a shock to anyone who thinks that Hungarian music is gypsy violins... ... this raucously beautiful music...'
New York Times
GBP 10.79
