Tárkány Művek | en

Tárkány Művek plays an organic mix of traditional Hungarian music and contemporary improvistional music that is called jazz nowadays. The main connection is the element of improvisation in both music. In a longer term we try to bring the two styles closer to each other and try to create hungarian contemporary improvisational music based on the living traditions. Most themes are traditional Hungarian folk songs, some are Romanian. The lyrics are writen by Bálint Tárkány-Kovács, the leader of the band, but some text are traditional or writen by the great poet János Pilinszky. The tunes are arranged by Bálint Tárkány-Kovács. .
