Budapest Voices:
A popular a cappella group celebrating their fifth anniversary this year, Budapest Voices broke through with their unfaltering love of singing and clever choice of material.
Zsuzsa Warnusz arranges songs from Hungary’s alternative scene from metal to rock to the band’s twelve voices plus one drummer, resulting in a musc richer sound than most a cappella bands. Csaba Pusztai, arguably the best-trained drummer in the country, provides the beat to rock and pop hits sung with gusto.Lakatos Mónika és a Cigány Hangok:
Lakatos Mónika és a Cigány Hangok:
Hearing Mónika Lakatos sing is an experience in its own league. Her powerful voice rises from a petite frame, taking Olah Gypsy melodies straight to the audience’s heart. This time she is accompanied Mazsi Rostás and 6 other fellow musicians, relying mostly on their voices to perform the music of their community. Mónika Lakatos just made a solo debut, her album Romanimo reaching fourth rank on World Music Charts Europe. At Budapest A Cappella Festival she sings more upbeat, rhythmic Roma songs like only she can.
