Featuring:
Modern Art Orchestra
Artistic director: Kornél Fekete-Kovács
The Modern Art Orchestra's À la MAO... series aims to present compositions and adaptations, sometimes originals, by members of the orchestra in a new context. In recordings and concerts, the orchestra has created a repertoire that is unparalleled in the history of Hungarian jazz. Some of these pieces have never been heard before by old or new followers, arranged in a new thematical, stylistic or other way. Additionally, some of them have never been released on disc or digitally.
An unmissable piece in such a programme is the orchestra leader Kornél Fekete-Kovács's suite Yamas and Nyamas, of which the movement Tapas is based on an Indian raga. Actually, Bartók also collected folk music in Asia Minor, and in recent years the MAO has systematically adapted Bartók's works, such as the 15 Hungarian Peasant Songs, to its own sound. Some compositions by the in-house composers of the Modern Art Orchestra have also revealed Balkan, Indian and Arabic musical influences.
