ABOUT THE BAND:
GYPSY COLORS
Central European World Music
A fascinating world music experience blending Eastern and Central European
folk music by exceptional artists from several countries Kálmán Balogh Gypsy
Cimbalom Band from Budapest
Kálmán Balogh – cimbalom ~ Sandor Budai – violin ~ Ferenc Kovács – trumpet &
violin Peter Bede - saxophone ~ György Mihály – guitar ~ Csaba Novák – bass
Kálmán Balogh is one of the foremost Hungarian cimbalom players, descending
from a famous dynasty of Hungarian Gypsy musicians. His virtuosity is
matched only by his understanding and respect of his heritage. A graduate of
Ferenc Liszt Academy of Music of Budapest, he has completed many successful
tours throughout the world with various ensembles, including five tours in
North America. The cimbalom, a sort of oversized hammer dulcimer played with
mallets like a vibraphone, possesses piano like percussive abilities to
drive a band rhythmically or take the melodic lead. In Kálmán Balogh's
expert hands, the cimbalom can do both simultaneously. His mastery of this
unique and rare Hungarian folk instrument has mesmerized audiences. Kálmán
Balogh Gypsy Cimbalom Band is the dynamic merging of music from the old and
new worlds. Balogh continues a fabled European musical tradition harking
back to the collaboration of masters like gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt
and violinist Stephane Grappelli, connecting the ancient folk music
traditions of Central and Eastern Europe with the chord progressions and
swing of jazz. Balogh's cimbalom becomes a new and compelling voice
centering a band which also includes acoustic bass, acoustic guitar,
trumpet, and violins. Similarities in jazz and traditional folk music, such
as improvisation and a kaleidoscope of emotional expressions, are
immediately evident.
Melodies, which have been polished in European villages for centuries, are
interpreted with great respect and understanding by The Gypsy Cimbalom Band,
enabling present day music lovers to experience the emotions and beauty
inherent in the music of our ancestors. Kálmán Balogh Gypsy Cimbalom Band
brings a contemporary and uniquely forward-looking edge to time honored
traditions, leaving audiences enthralled and inspired.
