An outstanding group of the Hungarian táncház (folk dance) movement, Magos conveys the purest traditional tunes of Hungarian folk music every time they step on stage, proving the ageless relevance and energizing vibes of unmodified, authentic string melodies.
Focusing mostly on 20th century folk song collections from Transylvania, Transdanubia and Satmar, they revive the ancient music with such attention to detail that even the impact of notable local musicians and singers shines through their style. Magos comes together as an illustrious assortment of the most skilled young revival folk musicians of their generation.
They were selected by the WOMEX 20 jury for the regional Duna-stage. Magos will play this October at MÜPA Budapest at Budapest Ritmo feat WOMEX festival.
