The Zurgo Ensemble on this CD release
present the music and traditions of the Csango Hungarians living in Moldavia.
Since 1992 they have collected dance music and songs from the Moldavian Csangos and play
them on traditional instruments such as the violin, kaval, kobza, whistle and drum etc. In
their native Hungary they are regular performers of their art and have appeared on many
radio and television programmes.
East of the Carpathian mountains is the territory of Moldavia, now a part
of Romania, and it is here in the 12th and 13th centuries that
Hungarians settled. Whilst still preserving certain ancient Hungarian influences, the
music of the Csangos has inevitably been touched by the music from their immediate
neighbours. So within the music Zurgo play you can easily hear the Balkan music of the
Turkish, Slavic, Romanian people.
