BANNER SQUARE
5pm The Muzsikás Story – celebrating half a century of the band’s history

Muzsikás is one of the most important formations of the dance house movement that started half a century ago. We now know that folk music and folk dance became a source of communal experience, the excitement of which had an impact far beyond the world of clubs, from film and rock music through the visual arts to theatre and dance. This colourful world is still alive and thriving, and we will get a taste of it on the fiftieth anniversary of Muzsikás. Julcsi Paár, a consummate singer, will welcome families with songs from her album Kerekerdő, Florin Kodoba, the lead violinist of the Magyarpalatka Band will demonstrate the essence of dance music, and there will of course be a chance to learn dances. Since it will be Easter Monday, there will be a spring ball late in the evening, with music provided by Berka, a band founded fifteen years ago and specializing in Moldavian Csángó folk music.
