19 Jun 03 - 07:19 AM (#968935) Subject: Folk Music in Budapest, Hungary From: Dave Bryant Does anyone know anything about any Folk Music venues in Budapest ? Linda (Essex Girl) and I are due to be over there during the summer and would like to know if there are any bars etc where we might be able to play. We expect that there will be Hungarian Folk Music/Dance laid on at the tourist level, but we'd like to find somewhere where we could join in a bit. |

I did meet a guy who does traditional folk dance ( we met in a TEA shop....!) when we sang at a wedding there- you can get a contact to him by phoning Roxanne on 0036 28 432 851, she speaks perfect English and loves to meet us Brits. |

A most amazing house! I particularly remember the Granite Xylophone. Also Keksckemet is the the birthplace of Kodaly, and the Carillon on the wall of the town hall is guarenteed to keep you awake all night! Dave...Have a great time! Regards Ralphie |

Our time might be rather limited because the main reason that we're going is so that Linda can give her daughter a hand with grandaughter while grandson (who has mild cerebral palsy) is attending the Peto Andras Institute. |
