'The issue of Parno Graszt band's second CD satisfies a long lasting expectation of the audience Europe wide as the debut recording of the Hungarian gipsy band (Hit the
piano, Fonó Records, FA-202-2) gained reputation achieving the number 7 level on World Music Chart Europe in October 2002. The concert events of the band have always reached the highest level of
success wherever they have performed on stage.
Featured guest artists on the CD are renowned Hungarian musicians, among
them cimbalom player
Kálmán Balogh.
The gypsy band Parno Graszt were recently featured in a BBC 4 TV programme in the UK. The programme
shows the vibrant village culture that still exists today in Paszab today, a community of gypsies in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg. That this culture is still alive today is due, in no small way, to the fact that some 50 years earlier a village elder saw that external influences were
eroding this way of live. Despite having no real education he set about ensuring that the subtleties of their gypsy way of life - music, dance etc, were preserved for the future.
Todays' generation now revere these traditions and keep them alive in Parno
Graszt. The core members may only number 7 but this can swell up to over 20
- including ten dancers of three generations - aged from
10 to 71 years old, when the occasion demands it.
Transportation in the village is still a horse and cart. The importance of their horse being acknowledged in the name they call their gypsy band:
White Horse = Parno Graszt.
When a guest visits their small village in time of wedding, christening, funeral, ball or any other kind of ceremony,
they will see that the whole population joins the band - the instruments go from hand to hand and everybody is a dance master.
Maybe this spirit of living tradition makes their concerts such frenetic celebrations. They have not only performed, but
have also created folklore during the recording of their current album too - some of the songs where written while staying in the
studio.
Parno Grast means "White Horse". White as the symbol of purity and
Horse as the symbol of freedom.
