Harmónia Jazzműhely

The brilliant young Hungarian tenorman produces a beautiful, muscular, dark tone on his horn, plays jazz that sounds like jazz, he is a soulful hard bop player, so true lovers of the genre will absolutely love him.

Emerging in 2018, young pianist Rezső Jónás Jr. now leads a long-standing sibling trio whose rare musical symbiosis has earned them top international honors, including the Müpa Jazz Showcase jury prize and London’s legendary 606 Club award.

With his own trio, he achieved first place at the Vysledky Jazz Festival in 2016, and in the same year he also received the “Newcomer of the Year” award. At his performances, he frequently played together with Ferenc Snétberger.

Trombonist Krisztián Csapó pays tribute to Melba Liston with a special concert, performing with a band assembled specifically for this evening, honoring the centenary of her birth.

Memorial concert featuring numerous Hungarian jazz stars.

Bolba Éva is an immensely popular performer who creates a happy, carefree atmosphere wherever she appears.

Award-winning UK jazz singer Louise Balkwill visits Hungary as part of the Harmónia Jazz Workshop and London’s 606 Club MusicXChange, showcasing her fiery scat singing and unique style inspired by the Great American Songbook.

The band’s playing is characterized by fresh energy, a willingness to experiment and an openness to improvisation.

The curiosity and experimental spirit of Kovász bring constant freshness and new flavors to the audience, as the musicians boldly explore the borderlands of different genres with their unique instrumental setup.

After last year's hugely successful concert, we cannot be without Desmond, who made his name and fame with the Dave Brubeck Quartet and that’s why people tend to overlook the wonderful music he made with the musically likeminded trumpeter, Chet Baker. This quintet made up from top musicians on the Hungarian jazz scene. 

Urbán Orsi is one of the outstanding jazz singers in Hungary. With her natural radiance and immediately identifiable, deep, powerful voice she creates a fantastic atmosphere.

In previous years the audience had already been able to "explore" the future stras of the piano, guitars, vocal, grass, and then drummers and bassists. Now the keyboards in the lead again!

All members of the quartet are among the best in their genre. The leader of the group plays a whole arsenal of reed instruments. 

Instead of competing, these brilliant musicians complement each other by producing a fresh and unique sound that transcends down all the artificial dividing lines created by rigid definitions of genre.
