BESH O DROM
FRIDAY 20 JUNE - 19:30
Prairie des Filtres - Pont-Neuf stage
HUNGARY
Revisited traditional musics
Traditional music isn't what it used to be. It is now free to take on new guises, and indulge in unusual
escapades, digressions and caprices. A bubbling troupe of musicians who got together in Budapest at the end of the 1990s, Besh O Drom explode all the clichés about Balkan dance music. Their unique style is a stimulating cocktail of gypsy characters and eastern reminiscences, jazzy flights, funky chaotic energy and heady improvisations, which readily embraces Hungarian, Romanian and Bulgarian traditions.
