Takács Quartet, Musikás & Marta Sebestyén
Bartók and Folkmusic

Time: Saturday, November 8, 2008, 8:00pm
Location: Reynolds Industries Theater, Duke

This landmark event brings together the world’s most renowned stewards of the Hungarian tradition to explore the rich interplay between Bartók and his native land. The much-lauded Takács Quartet has “exuded intensity and deep musical understanding” (Philadelphia Enquirer) since first forming in 1975 in Budapest. They appear here with Musikás, “Hungary’s finest active folk troupe” (Washington Post) and the heart-stopping Sebestyén, who sang on The English Patient soundtrack and performs the most moving Hungarian vocals of her generation.
