The members of this band first met during rehearsals and concerts at the Academy of Music, Budapest. In this mutually inspiring environment, the possibility of creating a unique, shared sound quickly became apparent: one that develops not only from individual performances, but also from collective attention and real-time reactions. This experience prompted the bandleader to develop a repertoire consisting of his compositions written specifically for this lineup.

The music of the sextet is based on present-time thinking within and beyond the themes, and on live form creation. The pieces leave room for spontaneous musical decisions, dialogues, and a shared sense of time, where classical, jazz, folk, and contemporary musical influences appear as part of a constantly evolving personal language.

The concert will be a current snapshot of this shared sound. It is a musical process in which composition and improvisation are naturally intertwined, and where form is not necessarily predetermined, but arises from attention and the intensity of interplay.

This concert was held as part of the UNESCO International Jazz Day Festival 2026 program, with support from the National Cultural Fund.
