Kale Lulugyi was establed in 2002 in Oroszlány, and has been playing authentic gypsy folk music since, currently with seven members. Their repertoire concludes Hungarian, Upper Hungarian and Lovarian folk songs and also music inspired by the Balkan and the East. The main goal of the band is to promote authentic gypsy music in the world.
Várkonyi Csibészek will be back to Arló for sure as they perform at the festival every year!
The members of the band come partly from the world of classical music, partly from street music and choir singing, but all four of them grew up with sung poetry. They first came together under the name Restifecske for the very first Udvar Festival, where they performed both classical and contemporary poetry set to music, as well as their own poems. The style of their emerging songs is always determined by the lyrics and their mood on that particular day.
Our goal is that children and locals can participate free of charge in concerts, music, art and educational sessions to which they have limited access due to their place of residence, social background or ethnicity.
Since we only cover the costs of the organization with a small amount of tender and donation-type resources, we ask for your support so that the festival can be organized with the richest and most colorful program possible.
The organizers do not receive an honorarium.
