Gypsy Philharmonic Orchestra - The Best of Hungary
GYPSY PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA, is the only orchestra of its kind that transcends music to such a level of fun to the public. Gypsies are so sensitive to the music they intuitively play as if by instinct for the public to see as he hears.
Their repertoire mixes the traditional gypsy violin Grigoras Dinicu, Ferenc Erkel, Ferraris, Vittorio Monti, the airs of the Hungarian repertoire and Yiddish with the great classical composers works such as Johannes Brahms, Jacques Offenbach, Pablo de Sarasate, Johann Strauss Father & Son, Peter Tchaikovsky All masterfully interpreted without partition, 90 gypsy musicians from Budapest, all virtuosos and fascinating.
Violins, cellos, basses, cymbals and the clarinets, all united to bring to us catchy and rending accents of a tradition-shattering, those gypsies and a performing art that belongs that ‘them. This art of twirls, changes that betrays nothing but enrich the composition. They convey to the viewer the energy of a people who have chosen music as a universal language. Instinctive as a popular gypsy evening, rigorous as a Vienna concert black tuxedo.
a delight !!!
Sensitive violins warbling
Determined contrabasses marching
Diligent clarinets whispering
Serious cellos thinking
Excited cymbaloms dancing
what a beautiful thing
With Gypsies beating
