The musicians of the Heveder Hungarian Folk Ensemble may be young, but they are carrying on a long tradition.They music they play is straight from the villages of Transylvania and Hungary (Hungarian, Romanian and gypsy folk music). They come from the Hungarian populated city of Sepsiszentgyörgy (Sfântu Gheorghe) in eastern Transylvania. Heveder was founded in 2002. Since then, the group has become a perennial favorite at festivals and as dance musicians in Transylvania.
