Kézdy Luca: Deep Diving, Mupa, 29 March

- community & culture
There is a canard that the violin is not a true jazz instrument, that it is much better suited to folk music or the classical repertoire. This mistaken belief, however, would be vigorously disputed by anyone who has heard the playing of Luca Kézdy, the leading violinist of the generation of Hungarian jazz musicians currently in their prime.

- community & culture
By somehow combining in a single person the roles of music teacher, pianist, music writer, composer, bandleader, cultural missionary and festival organiser, Tibor Márkus often leaves the impression of being an entire institution. He works tirelessly to teach and promote jazz music. And it is not just pianists trained in the art form whom he's been instructing all these decades: he has something ...
Ballet: 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest', 24 February
