The intention of the Gajdos Band is to propagate the beauty and eternal value of Hungarian folk music. We want to show that authentic Hungarian folk music has retained its freshness and vigour even in the 21st century, and it can suit the musical taste of the new age easily.

The members of the band are many-sided musicians, so we can interpret the musical dialects of the whole Hungarian-speaking area.

We have been awarded the highest honours of our profession, the Young Master of Folk Arts title.

At our concerts – besides authentic folk music – adaptations can also be heard, which can be put into the category of ‘world music’. In these pieces classical musical elements, musical solutions typical of pop music, and authentic folk music sounding make up a special unity, which results in the particular acoustic effects typical of the Gajdos Band.
