Another links to the same performers: Part 1 • Hungarian gypsy Street... Part 2 • Hungarian gypsy Street... • Folk Music à l'Ungare... • Greek Melody à l'Ungar... • Django Reinhardt & Duk... or just youtube Adrian Ursulet
For those who don't know, the first song they play is Caravan by Duke Ellington and the second one is Minor Swing by Django Reinhardt and Quintette du hot club de France.
This song (caravan) is my favourite song since I’m 16, I learnt when I was 25 that my grand mother was tzigane. The gypsy vibe is in my heart! Merci mémé !
Saw these two guys when me and a friend were in Copenhagen that same month. We were on our way to the central station after visiting Christiania. Let's just say we stayed and listened to them for a good hour or so! :p
bro. take two sticks and try to maintain a fast rythm for as long as you can. you won't reach 30 min without losing your accuracy or your rythm. usually, the cembalo is played very very fast so it's very very hard
Why are these guys not in a studio already? I'd buy that album right away. These guys are wildly skilled and deserve to be known. (In fact, I've heard them live many years ago walking by close to that place.)
This a music FROM MY HEART and LIFE when i listening music omgggg I feel life and hope!!!I alone as player a guitar a cibales and as DJ-peeerfeeect!!!! Thank U a share MILEN!!!!!from czechia!
Großartig!!! Ob Ungarn oder Rumänen, egal, der Cimbalomspieler (der Gitarrenspieler auch gut), ganz hervorragend!!! Ich hab mir das Video schon 50 Mal angesehen, ein Genuß!!! Danke!!! Caravan von Duke Ellington einmal etwas anders. Super!!!!
Love this music and the cimbalom. Was recently in Budapest and saw a New Years Day concert of the Budapest Bar ensemble which included an 18 year old cimbalom player who was extraordinary. Gypsy music at its best!!!!!
Been looking up different music and instruments from my heritage since I used the Ancestry kit. So far what I've found is pretty great! =D I love music, so this is a pretty fun way to learn about the places I come from. =)
Where will food come from? And no one is generous? Eating once a week? No sound of coins dropping! People stand a mile away with arms crossed? Beautiful Music.
I would replace envy with respect which is what they deserve.. aand nothing else prevents one from learning those tunes but the importance they're given
2:37 a little altercation there. the guy playing the bass-guitar raised the volume a little bit but the guy playing the cimbalom immediately lowered it back.... then you can clearly see the bass guy being pissed off about it :))))) You can see him in the rest of the video looking sideways due to being pissed off. :)))))
great playing. The are playing a traditional hungarian instrument....but clearly Romanian gypsies. We have our own talented Hungarian gypsy musicans and dont have to claim them all :-).....but cimbalom is hungarian instrument which other ethnic groups in the region started to use for their folk music as well.
Hi Simone..the instrument they are playing is hungarian. You are correct that its origns comes from a type of instrument found all over ancient asia. But what is played through out much of eastern europe...is hungarian invention. Pasta is also originally asian, but the modified versions like lasagna and spaghetti, they are accepted and Italian. The same goes with the cimbalom....here is a bit of historical reference for you.....Ferenc Erkel - who was the founder of the hungarian opera - used the cimbalom the first time in the hungarian classical music. This opera “Bánk bán” had his premier in 1861. In relation of his enormously success József V.Schunda instruments maker reformed and adapted the instrument to what we know as the hungarian cimbalom. He changed the instrument from 2 and half octave to 4 and half with pedals like by the piano. Such a large instrument needed legs. This new “hungarian” cimbalom was showed in 1874. Géza Allaga was the founder of the literature of this instrument. He founded the first school for it, too. From 1890 he was the cimbalom teacher at the National Musicschool in Budapest.
mixedbruh hungarians are asians as well :)) , so even if they say it is asian or not , the fact the hungarians are asians , makes the cimbalom asian instrument. apart of that, it is a great instrument in the hands of a master.
That instrument is From ancient Persians Iranians .. that’s where gypsies started to play cimbalom hundreds of years before they arrived in Eastern Europe ..
Not concert hall quality, but pretty good playing. He starts with Juan Tizol's "Caravan" then continues with the Django Reinhardt classic, "Minor Swing", my favorite Django tune
Milen Stoyanov Usually, romanians don't tell You, that they are from Romania... Thats because of the negative opinion about romanian people, except for the gypsies... But I am a hungarian speaking romanian and I can tell you, they are from Romania :) ("Dai mai tare ma" means make it louder in romanian)
+1kicsipunk Te szerencsétlen....segített a google lefordítani? József azt írta hogy "magyar vagyok, aki beszél románul". Te vagy a szánalmas hogy még így be mersz szólni valakinek....bár egy punktól mit lehet várni, kannásbor szint gondolom...
József Kalapács Egyrészt, ha visszaolvasnád láthatnád, hogy a szép irodalmi nyelvet nem én kezdtem, hanem a kedves Rábel, aki elkezdett minősítgetni. A történet többi része egyszerű, amit te írtál azt jelenti, hogy "magyarul beszélő román vagyok" a neved pedig magyar, aki pedig magyarként románnak tartja magát, azt nem szeretem, ennyi. Ha csak elírtad nem kell magadra venni, ha meg tényleg így gondoltad, akkor nyugodtan vedd magadra. Az angol tudásod pedig neked kell csiszolni, nem nekem.
I found it out finally!:D it was familiar to me as well, but it took me about 2 months to get the answer, it's theeeee, tadamtadamm Caravan's instrumental version from the Sophisticated Ladies :)
It's Jazz. The name of the songs are Caravan (Duke Ellington) and Minor Swing (Django Reinhardt). The name of the instrument they are using is Cimbalom.
