From band:
"The ‘Flótás’ band has been playing traditional ‘csángó’ folk music since its forming in 2001. The aim of our band is to reveal, to promote, to hand on and to put the musical traditions of the still living ‘csángó’ culture back in its original function (playing music for dance, entertaining, self-expression).
Flotas consists of people playing the most different trends of folk music, thus from the strings through the Bulgarian tunes to the ‘pávakör’ campaign a lot of styles formed the sound of the band. The great variety gives the atmosphere of a real team work.
This CD release shows a new side of our band, which reveals the work of our band between 2003 and 2005. The
recording includes a different musical approach: ‘csángó’ folk music based on rewritings and keeping traditions.
The melodies you hear on the album originate from the harmonization of today’s people and the old days’ feelings. Therefore in many songs we used different scoring and interpretation than usual, because our aim was self-expression.
... we would like to express our respect for those musicians who taught and accepted us and handed on their cultures, thus
Erzse Bálint, Rózsa Dobos, Márton Fehér, András Hodorog, László István Legedi and Aurél
Mandache."
