János Zerkula – violin, vocals, Gizella Pulika – gardon Featuring: Zsuzsanna Varga, Ferenc Sára – dance Kerekes Band: Viktor Fehér – drums, Ákos Csarnó – viola, Zsombor Fehér – recorder, Csaba Námor – koboz, Csaba Kónya – bass guitar Tradition in tradition: in 2007 the Palace of Arts is again organising a festival whose title and closing concert connects to the Muzsikás group, in which naturally traditional Hungarian folk music takes centre stage. The legendary Gyimes Csángó fiddler János ...Zerkula celebrates his eightieth birthday in 2007. He is one of the last representatives of “classical” folk music: he is blind and can play Gyimes laments no less sublimely than more foot-tapping fare. In the second half of the concert, the Kerekes Band take to the stage. Over the last four or five years, they gained prominence on the Hungarian world music scene with their electro-rock versions of traditional Moldavian and Gyimes music. Their third and latest album Pimasz (Cheeky) has just been released and has already been hailed abroad for the way it mixes Csángó music with funk.
