Young enthusiastic musicians from the countryside got together in Budapest in the spring of 2013 to form Bajkó Band. Their language is Hungarian folk music. The ensemble plays authentic traditional melodies from several areas of the Carpathian Basin. Not too long ago they released their first album entitled: “Párosan” - it features arrangements from their favorite areas of Transylvania.

What does the word “bajkó” mean? We know of two meanings: according to the Debrecen Civis Dictionary it means good quality gold; and according to the Hungarian Ethnographic Lexicon it means a black, collarless women’s jacket decorated with beads and silk ribbons.

Members of the band:
Kálmán Bence – violin, Horváth Balázs – violin, Weingart Csaba – viola, Varga Balázs – double bass
