On the first festival day of the 10th edition of Budapest Ritmo, the musical idioms will range from free-spirited pop to poignant ballads, from Anatolia to Amsterdam, and from Porto Inglês to Nagyecsed. The great double bills of the evening could be the band of Hungarian singer-songwriter Balázs Szabó and the Kurdish minstrel, Ali Doğan Gönültaş; the Dutch disco-gospel act, Arp Frique & The Perpetual Singers vis-à-vis the Anatolian psychedelic group, Altın Gün; and Carmen Souza, who blends the music of Cape Verde with classical jazz, complemented by FÜLÜ, who agitate in animal masks.

These concerts of the Bartók Spring are presented by Müpa Budapest as a joint event with Hangvető.
