Musician's Café: Jr. Ernő Oláh & His Band
Musician's Café: Jr. Ernő Oláh & His Band
This programme is held in Hungarian.
Whether it's the stirring melodies of stringed gypsy bands or the moving melodies of bar pianists, music has always permeated the restaurants, pubs and cafés of Hungarian towns. Once a month, the Muzsikusok Kávéháza series, launched in the café of the Hungarian House of Music, takes the public on a journey into the world of the musicians who host the event. During our Café evenings, the atmosphere of the restaurants of Gyula Krúdy's time, Pál Jávor, Antal Páger, celebrities who partied with the band, or even decadent jazz musicians will come alive. The aim of the series is to draw attention to one of our most important Hungarian heritages, the café gypsy music, which is nowadays unfortunately increasingly being overshadowed.
This time, the example of café music is given by jr. Ernő Oláh and his orchestra. Guests will be welcomed with a welcome drink and, in keeping with the spirit of the Muzsikusok Kávéháza, dinner and drinks will be available at the concert venue.
The aim of the series is to draw attention to one of the most important parts of Hungarian heritage, the Roma music of the cafés, which sadly is increasingly neglected nowadays.
