The Balázs József Quintet was founded in 2005, and over time it has grown to become a significant domestic representative of melodic, modern cool. In 2007, the band leader won the Lakatos Ablakos Dezső jazz performance scholarship. In addition to his successes in the world of jazz, he is also recognized as an arranger and author in other genres (pop, film music). Back in 2009, in connection with his quintet’s debut album (I don’t got you mean), Oláh Kálmán wrote about him: ”He improvises in any style of formation, you can feel that he speaks perfectly and uses the native language of jazz with taste.” !

JUNE 28. // JAZZTERRACE 2024: SZALAY GÁBOR ORGAN TRIO

2024 June 28.
SZALAY GÁBOR ORGAN TRIO

Szalay Gábor – Guitar
Horváth Albert – Organ
Bágyi Balázs – Drums

admission: donation // start: 19:00

Most of the trio’s program, founded in 2023, consists of their own compositions and the compositions of the excellent jazz composer and pianist Theonius Monk. The joint playing of organ and guitar is not new in jazz music, this fact is also proven by countless recordings of jazz guitarists with organ.
In addition to the fact that they can complement each other in terms of sound, it also has a practical role, as the organist’s left hand replaces the double bass, while he can also play harmonies with his right hand in the accompaniment. When the organist improvises, the guitar takes over the accompaniment.
Among other things, this playing together makes the trio’s music special.

GRENCSÓ PORT & LEWIS JORDAN

Lewis Jordan – a-sax, poetry
Grencsó István – wind instruments
Benkő Róbert – Bass
Miklós Szilveszter – Drums

admission: donation // start: 19:00

For over 20 years Grencsó and Jordan have savored their international connection. From the early performances together at Gödör at Deák tér, Jelen near Blaha Lujza tér, and Trafó in Budapest, they have inspired each other into a whirlwind of improvisation. Since then, outside of Budapest, they have performed from Györ to Szeged, Békéscsaba and from Magyarkanizsa to Dunaszerdahely.
They have recorded twice on the BMC label (Homespun in Black and White and Local Time). Both musicians thrive in an atmosphere of free exploration, and they shape their sounds in a way to summon the spirits. Those spirits may come quietly, or they may come ferociously, but the summoning is what matters. Grencsó plays saxophones, clarinet, flute, and wind instruments of all kinds.
Jordan plays alto saxophone and adds his poetry to their presentations. Jordan, based in California, leads his Music at Large ensemble there and they have released four recent CDs, with Critical Mass (Innova 073) the latest.

Primul concert al terasei de jazz de vară deschide anul de 25 de ani de la Posticum. Programul coincide cu ultima ședință internațională (retragere) a călugărului iezuit elvețian și a maestrului zen Niklaus Brantschen. Programul este o mare întâlnire. Textele sacre și melodiile străvechi se întâlnesc cu jazz-ul și improvizațiile dansatoarei din Zurich Marianne Kaiser. Drept rămas bun, putem auzi câteva sfaturi personale de la maestrul zen Niklaus Brantschen: despre întâlnirea, sosirea și trăirea la maximum a vieții.

Concertele de Jazz pe terasa Posticum sunt gratuite – În schimb, sugerăm oaspeților noștri să facă o donație de 25 RON pentru cazului social al adolescentei Vivien Kiraly (https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=756970056568888&set=a.432213729044524).

A nyári jazzterasz első koncertje nyitja meg a Posticum 25. jubileumi évét. A Program egybeesik Niklaus Brantschen svájci jezsuita szerzetes és zen mester utolsó nemzetközi sesshinével (elvonulás). A Program egy nagy találkozás. A szent szövegek és az ősi dallamok találkoznak a dzsesszel és Marianne Kaiser zürichi táncművésznő impovizációival. Búcsúzásul néhány személyes tippet hallhatunk Niklaus Brantschen zen mestertől: találkozásról, megérkezésről, a teljes életről.

A Posticum Jazzterasz koncertek ingyenesek. 25 lejes adományával Király Vivien súlyos műtétjét támogathatja  (https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=756970056568888&set=a.432213729044524).

April 28., 2024 – 7pm // NAPFONAT – Transylvania concert tour

Napfonat – ERDÉLYI TURNÉ

Tagok:
Szarka Anita
Szalay Heni
Tóth Orsi
Tóth Eszter
Volkova Kriszti

A Napfonat visszatér a Posticumba április 28-án!

Az öttagú női a cappella együttes decemberi teltházas adventi koncertje után áprilisban ismét ellátogat Nagyváradra bemutatni a 4 őselem tematikájára íródott Harmatcseppben él a világ bennem című nagylemezük zenei anyagát is, mely a Föld, Levegő, Tűz és Víz minőségeit próbálja énekhanggal közelebb hozni a hallgatóhoz és érzékenyíteni az életet adó elemekhez való kapcsolatát. A lemez felkerült a világ legjelentősebb világzenei toplistájára, a World Music Charts Europe 11. helyére. Az album előfutára, a Mint a zápor pedig bekerült a DAL 2022 című műsor döntőjébe, a legjobb 8 produkció közé.
A Napfonat különleges színfoltja a magyarországi zenei palettának, hiszen a formáció öt énekesnő, öt frontember találkozása, alkotói közössége, akik együtt a világzene tágas és sokszínű műfajában tevékenykednek. Saját szerzeményeket, valamint magyar és más kultúrák népdalait dolgozzák fel polifonikus hangzásba öltöztetve. Zenéjük egyediségét adja, hogy az énekhangok összefonódása mellett fontos szerep jut a perkusszív hangszereknek.

A koncertre szeretettel látunk minden kedves érdeklődőt!

March 22. – 5pm // MAKÁM 40 – Instrumental

Friday
March 22., 5pm

MAKÁM 40 – INSTRUMENTAL

Bede Sári – vocals
Rácz Gabriella – violin
Vázsonyi János – saxofon
Krulik Zoltán – guitar
Bata istván – bass
Varró Zoltán – drums

A Makám az etno- folk és világzene egyik legrégibb hazai képviselője. Az együttes Európa számos országában koncertezett Párizstól Várnáig, Krakkótól Splitig, és turnézott Indiában is. Zenéjükben a magyar népzene mellett a Távol-Kelet, a Balkán, a jazz és a kortárszene hatása is fellelhető. Hangzásvilágát az etnikus és a hagyományos európai hangszerek együtthangzása tették egyedivé.  Legújabb korszakát a magyar népzene archaikus formái s a dal újrafelfedezése jellemzi.
A közelmúltban megjelent lemezeik személyes hangvételű stílusát, egzotikus ritmusok és lírai vallomások meghitt elegye adja. A Bartók és Kodály nevével fémjelzett örökség, az archaikus kultúrák és a kor zenei elemeinek szintézise a Makám változatlan hitvallása.

— — —
Makám is one of the oldest Hungarian representatives of ethno-folk and world music. The ensemble gave concerts in many European countries, from Paris to Varna, from Krakow to Split, and also toured in India. In addition to Hungarian folk music, the influence of the Far East, the Balkans, jazz and contemporary music can be found in their music. Its sound world is made unique by the harmony of ethnic and traditional European instruments. Their latest era is characterized by the archaic forms of Hungarian folk music and the rediscovery of the song. Their recently released records have a personal style, an intimate mixture of exotic rhythms and lyrical confessions. The heritage marked by the names of Bartók and Kodály, the synthesis of archaic cultures and the musical elements of the age is the unchanging creed of Makám.
