Kovasz
Fermentum
With the album Fermentum, a new generation of Hungarian folk jazz makes its mark: Kovasz - Sourdough in Hungarian - renews the genres decades-old tradition with its instrumental lineup as well as its approach. The band leader, Gergo Kovats, had got a foothold both in the world of jazz and folk, so his compositions do not simply approach folk music from the perspective of a jazz musician, but unbreakably combine all the influences that he and his bandmates have experienced so far, almost creating a new genre.
