Thread Name: Hungarian Folk on BBC 4
Subject: RE: Hungarian Folk on BBC 4
I enjoyed it, perhaps more than the UK Folk Prom. As for Gypsy Professional cafe music, it all had it's origin in the country's traditional music. As did most of the UK Folk Prom. And if the performers were all professional, well so were the performers in the UK Folk Prom, weren't they? Not all the music played was cafe music and I'm not knowledgeable enough to say whether what was played was Hungarian Folk or not. Actually I'm not sure that I am qualified to say if the content of the UK Folk Prom was UK folk or not.

If you liked it, you liked it and if you didn't you didn't. I did, a lot more than rap, punk or modern jazz.
