Roma Song Day Concerts in Ten Hungarian Cities

The International Roma Song Day is being held for the third time this year in fifteen venues across six countries on Aug 8, and this year celebrates all kinds of styles from flamenco, Balkan brass bands, to gypsy jazz.

Mihály “Mazsi” Rostás, the event’s artistic director, told a press conference the day will celebrate the diversity of Gypsy music with legendary Roma and non-Roma artists, with 260 performers giving concerts in ten Hungarian cities and five foreign locations.

The longer term aim is to bring the event to every EU member state, he added. Concerts will be held in the courtyard of the Benczúr House in Budapest, while other Hungarian venues include Százhalombatta, Szentendre, Veszprém and Pécs.

Roma Song Day will also be celebrated in Jerez de la Frontera in Spain, Štúrovo (Párkány) in Slovakia, Târgu Mureș (Marosvásárhely) in Romania, Burgas in Bulgaria and the German capital, Berlin.
