Cókolom---Gypsy music

Old songs with new sounds . . . will touch your heart and move your feet!

 

COkolom is a quartet of excellent musicians from Holland who have created an unique style of music by combining traditional Hungarian , Gypsy and Balkan village dance music using vocals and 4 string instruments - violins and double bass and often the three-stringed kontra-violin ,( an instrument which is unique to Hungary )

With several cd´s on the market they have deservedly gained rave reviews and are well sought after in Europe for numerous festivals and concerts.

"...Wonderfully raw instrumental playing of Hungarian and Balkan dances, songs sung in Hungarian, Romanian and Romany... Some very unusual repertoire, well played and strongly recommended."

(from The Rough Guide / World Music / Vol. 1, edition 1999)

This Gypsy sounding music performed so wonderfully by Csókolom will get your feet tapping and your evening off to a fiery start..!

Reccomended without a doubt
