The Paganini of the contemporary Hungarian and international music scene is fifty years old! The violin and zither virtuoso, orchestra leader, composer, jazz and ethnic, Hungarian and Balkan, Eastern and Western, improvisational and classical, traditional and experimental, and many other adjectives, but consistently eluding all classifications, from Kelebia. From Japan, from Belgrade to London and from Budapest to Berlin and New York to Beijing, he is not only a well-known music creator, but he is celebrated with the best and the best on the various top lists amid the greatest accolades.

It seems like it was only yesterday when we started to get to know him in his solo productions, then with the Dreschs, and later in a duo with more and more famous superstars from Balanescu to Volosi, as well as his own formations from Vojvodina with the most amazing line-up and yet always overwhelmingly brilliant.

Let's celebrate the fiftieth birthday of this dizzying, unique and unrepeatable musical genius at the peak of his career together, let's give him back the energy that we've received from him so far, let's lick at the sounds of his endless creativity, soar to his unbridled melodies and rave about his whip-lashing musical vehemence!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to put the crown on the line of his fantastic concerts at the venue of his many legendary concerts, the A38 Hajón, and celebrate the deepest musical revelation of this silent genius on the occasion of his fiftieth birthday in the best acoustic quality.

The first venue of the 50th anniversary is the A38!

Line-up:

Lajkó Féix – violin, zither

Kurina Michael - dulcimer

Ferenc Kurina - double bass



Layra


LAYRA, or singer-songwriter Eszter Tóth's newly debut solo project, builds a special, captivating world from folk and world music elements, where feminine primordial power, intimate storytelling, raw emotions expressed in folk songs and the naturalness of her own lyrics complement each other harmoniously. Eszter plays zither, guitar, octave mandolin, framed drums and banj, and in recent years she has been active in the Napfonat a cappella women's vocal ensemble, the Lanou band and the Noémo formation, and has also regularly performed solo.
