Four Hungarian musicians, each with an impressive career. Members
are: Kati Szvorak – vocals and gardon, Ferenc Kiss – vocals, koboz,
and viola, Bela Agoston – various wind instruments, Zsigmond Lazar –
fiddle. Their music is deeply rooted in the folk tradition of Hungary and
its surrounding areas, with a strong contemporary slant. They play
traditional instruments. The 'MEOTIS' release contains live recordings
from their succesful tour of the US and Scotland (where they appeared at the
Edinburgh Festival).
Ferenc Kiss was a founding member of Vizonto and Kolinda and has work
successfully solo for many years. He has produced many folk based
ensembles and recently completed a soundtrack to the Hungarian motion
picture ‘Gypsy Lore’. His new solo release ‘Outlaws of the City’
is also available.
Many of the musicians on this release also play in the Odessa Klezmer Band
release 'Isaac's dry Tree'
‘...Authentic, affecting and cheery folk music
from a quartet which proves that music and humour know few language
barriers.’
The HERALD, 19 August 1999
(Edinburgh Festival, 1999)
‘It’s very energetic, powerful music that reflects a lot about
Hungarian life and culture. (...) It’s quite thrilling to hear.’
Lisa Feurzeig, Grand Valley State University, Michigan
