Mucky invited members of three bands to the anniversary concert.
Evening starts with the GroupenSax formation.
GroupenSax, formed by Ferenc Muck and his students, consisting of saxophonists, was formed in 2010. Their repertoire consists of their own compositions and popular jazz as well as funky adaptations.
Contributed by:
Borbála Bratka – alto saxophone
Balázs Cserta – baritone saxophone, pipes, clarinet, akai ewi
Dr. Jasper Andor – tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone, akai ewi
Mits Márton – alto saxophone, recorder
Ivan Muck – percussion instruments
Before the break, Mucky continues with the Muck Eva Trio & Jasper Andor formation.
Soul and funky style pieces from Eva Bassology 's album and the processing of Hirleman Bertalan's legendary songs with virtuoso solos is a real specialty and also a premiere.
Contributed by:
Hirleman Bertalan – drums
József Márkosi – keyboard instruments
Muck Éva – bass guitar
Dr. Jasper Andor – tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone, akai ewi
After the break, Mucky takes the stage with members of Djabe. He was a leading performer of the band from 1997-2000. Since 2018, he has performed with them regularly again.
The evening will also be a record presentation, as Djabe will be available for the first time in December: Witchi Tai To Live 2019 CD / DVD concert album, which was recorded in 2019 at MOMKult with the band Mucky. With the Witchi Tai To record, the band exploded into the public consciousness in 1998, but a concert record has not yet been made from the material. This shortcoming is now being filled by the publication. The show features a selection of CD compositions.
