The Dresch Quartet has been playing in its current lineup for four years, and its founder, the highly acclaimed Mihály Dresch, has been a key figure in Hungarian music since the 1980s. This year he was awarded the Kossuth Prize. His band consistently and confidently treads its own unique path with an individual fusion of Hungarian folk music and African-American jazz, developed by the leader and the members. Commitment to the musical concept, respect and humility towards the sources, outstanding musicians, new and evergreen compositions, standards in the Dresch manner – all these combine to create the musical experience that may always strike the audience with its freshness.
