The concert presents the authentic folk music of the different, sometimes remote regions of the Carpathian Basin. Hungarian folk music is characterised by its various authentic styles, different variations of tunes and several types of instruments. One of the aims of the concerts is to show this diverse musical world, especially that of the Transylvanian, Moldavian and Transdanubian regions.
Besides, the young and talented musicians also focus on those remote areas which are less represented in the dance house movement, e.g. the archaic and peculiar folk music of Székelyföld (Seclerland). This special music is typical of Gyergyó region, which had a great impact on the music of Bartók Béla.
In addition to the concerts they can provide other programs as well: concerts and different programs for children; workshops; dance lessons and dance house events; presentations about folk music and ethnography.
