The Free Style Chamber Orchestra is not just free in name: the common goal of the members is to create music without boundaries or clichés, which derives from the different musical backgrounds of the musicians and the cultural diversity of the world surrounding them. The band is more than capable of finding a unity of voice between the glorious symphonic sonority and improvised chamber jazz. Their compositions are characterised by openness and a positive eclecticism, but following the trend created by Bartók as well as leading figures of Hungarian jazz, they are also highly influenced by Hungarian instrumental folk music. This evening’s concert is in three parts, and we will hear compositions from their latest CD Pannon Celtic Dance as well as band leader János Nagy performing in smaller sessions with his musical friends, pianist Péter Sárik, bass guitarist György Szappanos and drummer Szilárd Banai.
