Celebration Of Folk Music, Palace Of Arts Budapest, 23 February
The Hungarian folk music revival of the 60s and 70s was embodied by the dance-house movement.

This exemplary tradition lives on and flourishes to this day. How would it look if this phenomenon wasn't part of A Celebration of Folk Music?!

Of course, that is out of the question. On this day, there will be two dance houses: one from 6 to 7 pm and another between 10 and 11 pm. The Magos band takes us on a musical journey of dance around the Carpathian basin from Szatmár to Székelyföld. 

Admission to the event is free of charge.

Date and time: 23 February, 6 pm, 10 pm

Venue: 
Mupa
1095 Budapest, Komor Marcell u. 1.

    Eliades Ochoa's performance at Müpa Budapest is sure to be one of the most exciting concerts of 2024. Although the Cuban singer/guitarist has been a famous musician in his native country since the 1970s, it was only at the turn of the millennium that the wider world first encountered his name, thanks to the Wim Wenders documentary on the Buena Vista Social Club.

    So what is Jazz? Something that is difficult to define? Of course, because of its amazing ability to change styles! If you want it to be, it can be romantic-psychedelic magic, and at other times it’s an ambient jazz-pop journey, or perhaps a touch of hip-hop-afrobeat levitation. At the 17th, Jazz Showcase, every note points to the future.
