(This track is a midi rendering of the piece)
The piece was written to be played with my Hungarian friends and teachers but never received a full performance. If you are curious about playing it please reach out, I would love to share the music with you!
Magyar Táncvíziók (Hungarian dance visions) was born out of my time living in Budapest, written to express my love for and connection to Hungarian folk music and culture.
The piece flows between sections like a mind flows between scenes in a dream, each one an apparition of a different style from the rich tapestry of Hungarian music. The visions range across earthy rustic dances, fiery Romani fiddling, and yearning rhapsodic folksongs, blended with contemporary musical textures and colors.
