On the third day of Budapest Ritmo, fusion genres and deep emotions will dominate the stages of the Aquarium Club. The evening will open with Divanhana, an orchestra of Balkan sevdah songs and upbeat rhythms. On Saturday you can also be amazed by the unmistakable sound, improvisational and experimental performance mode of Boi Akih. Dodó Kis, a Hungarian recorder player shares the stage with Indonesian, Dutch and Guinean band members, as they fuse the sounds of the Indian Ocean, Dutch jazz and the kora, the harp of Africa. António Zambujó, repeatedly voted the best male fado singer, will also give a solo performance, rarely seen on the Budapest Ritmo stage. The duo of Hannah James and Toby Kuhn is as singular as a spontaneous collaboration gets: voice, accordion and cello form the basis of a folky sound, spiced up with a little tap dancing. The highlight of the evening will be the concert of Liraz, an Israeli Persian singer-songwriter with a magical voice, who combines modern Israeli music with his Persian roots, from Rumi poems through lullabies to songs that set the dancefloor ablaze.

Budapest Ritmo is jointly presented by Müpa Budapest and Hangvető in the framework of the Bartók Spring.
