Overview

English Overview

"Budapest Csárdás" is a vibrant tribute to Hungarian folk and gypsy music, brought to life through an unforgettable collaboration by Mihály Gudi Farkas and his Gipsy Band. Released in 2001 by Musica Hungarica Ltd in Budapest, this CD features 11 carefully selected duet tracks that showcase the remarkable versatility and soulful artistry of the renowned violinist Mihály Gudi Farkas. Born in Szolnok in 1971 and nurtured in a family of musicians, Gudi Farkas began playing the violin at the age of five and later rose to become the leader of the famed "Rajko" orchestra. He has since captivated audiences worldwide – including dignitaries and heads of government – with his dynamic live performances at venues such as the Tanya Csárda in Lajosmizse.

Hungarian Overview (Áttekintés)

A „Budapest Csárdás” egy élénk, magyar népzene és cigányzene ünnepe, melyet Mihály Gudi Farkas és Gipsy Band művészi együttműködése elevenít meg. A 2001-ben a Musica Hungarica Ltd által kiadott lemez 11 gondosan válogatott duettet tartalmaz, amelyek bemutatják Gudi Farkas páratlan hegedűjátékát és érzelmi kifejezését. Szolnokról származó, zenei családból érkező virtuóz már öt éves korában fogta meg a hegedűt, és ifjú korában került a híres „Rajko” zenekar élére, majd saját zenekarával világszerte elvarázsolta a közönséget – mind a hazai, mind a nemzetközi vendégek között. Az album autentikusan közvetíti a magyar népzene és cigányzene hagyományait, egyaránt meghatva a régi hagyományokra és a kortárs előadásmódra vágyó hallgatókat.
