I will play it as it is meant to be played. This music is little known.
Tcha Limberger
This trio featuring the violin playing of Tcha Limberger showcases specifically the folk music played by Gypsies in a small area of Transylvania called Kalotaszeg. There are three main repertoires played, Hungarian, Romanian, and Gypsy (a mixture of both)
Thanks mostly to Bela Bartok and Kodaly this music was saved from dieing out. In the early 1900’s, once Magyar Nota became very popular the locals would prefer to sing Nota tunes than their own folk tunes.
Bartok was just in time to save it and then Kodaly even introduced the real Hungarian folklore sounds in Schools. They both realized that this very old traditional local music was historically much more important than Magyar Nota.
Tcha Limberger was introduced to this style through local music camps. learning dances with music workshops on the three core instruments of the style, violin, bass, and brac.
The celebrated violinist Neti sandor, the biggest name of his generation, spotted Tcha and taught him the many melodies, harmonies and ornamentations.
Toni Rudi on Brac, from Mera, is very much a village player. Now 43 from the age of 14 has been accompanying the great Neti Sandor. He’s very well known for his own very exact style.
Berki Viktor has also been playing with Neti Sandor for last 10 years.
