Since 2008, Müpa Budapest has organised a gala event that celebrates Hungarian folk music and world music, featuring an introductory show that presents the diversity of the two genres through the dance house style. Kale Lulugyi, a dynastic Gypsy band from the town of Oroszlány, will set the mood with a dance house performance held in the Atrium. Juhász, a band from Subotica, will then kick off the concert hall event with authentic and energetic songs from the Serbian region of Vojvodina. One of Hungary’s oldest string ensembles, Dűvő, are celebrating their 45th anniversary, while Makám will perform songs from Endre Ady. Anna Sőregi will open the second half of the concert as she reveals the countless faces of the Szék collections. The most virtuoso tambura band in Szentendre, ViGaD, play melodies with Serbian roots, while the Kálmán Balogh Gypsy Cimbalom Band will get your blood stirring as they close out the gala event, accompanied by Branka Básits and the percussionist Szabolcs Mohai.
