The renewed Dallapé, first founded 86
years ago, has returned to the dance halls and continues the
tradition in the 1930´s style. The new director of Dallapé,
Juha Hostikka, follows in the footsteps of Martin Jäppilä,
Georg Malmsten and Bruno Laakko. Dallapé plays good old
Finnish jazz, gorgeous old evergreens, which have new strength
when played by a 12 musician group.
The present day Dallape has the best musicians – just like
in the golden years before the wars. The orchestra has received
access to the old original Dallapé arrangements and the
new material has also been made with respect to the legacy and
the unique sound of the band. Sincere good mood grabs the listener
forcibly. Dallapé is an unparalleled phenomenon in the
Finnish music scene.
The name stems from an Italian accordion make, and has been
etched in the Finnish mindscape, and it has almost become national
property. The soloists for the new Dallapé are Sami Saari
and Juha Hostikka.

The Budapest Klezmer Band, founded in 1990, comes from
the heart of Europe, from the very geographic location
where klezmer music originates. The Band's performance
is an exciting musical experience in traditional Jewish
folklore. They play musical arrangements, composed by
the founder and musical director of the ensemble, Ferenc
Jávori, who grew up in the former Munkács
(Munkacevo, now part of the Ukraine). Jávori learned
and played klezmer with the last surviving musicians from
a once flourishing community where this music was an integral
part of Jewish life. Other members of the band are also
exceptional musicians, most being graduates of the Franz
Liszt Academy of Music of Budapest.
The performance by the Budapest Klezmer Band transfers
the audience back to now extinct joyous times in Central
and Eastern Europe, when traditional Jewish music was
part of the community's cultural fabric. The Band also
specializes in theatrical productions, appearing on stage
with performers. They are currently featured in the ballet
PURIM, The Casting of Fate, and in the Fiddler on the
Roof production of the prestigious Madách Theater
in Budapest. Their climactic performances with the famous
Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra playing at the Academy of
Music in Budapest were resounding successes and were heralded
as an initial step in bringing klezmer music to the classical
concert hall.
Members of the group include:
Ferenc Jávori - band leader, composer and arranger
- piano, vocal
Bence Gazda - violin, vocal
István Kohán - clarinet, bass clarinet
Gábor Tamás - trombone, vocal
Anna Nagy - accordion
Gábor Kiss - double-bass
Végh Balázs - drums, percussion
Accordionist in the group Anna Nagy, started to play the
accordion when she was 9 years old. Her teacher taught
the pieces of classical composers such as Bach, Händel,
Mozart, and Scarlatti. Of course during the years she
kept up with contemporary music. After graduating, she
played in various theatrical orchestras. In 1991 she met
Ferenc Jávori (Fegya) who invited her to join the
one year old Budapest Klezmer Band. Ancsa makes more and
more fans with her modesty and instrumental skills. Since
2000 she has been teaching in the musical section of Lauder
Javne School.
In 2000 the Pro Cultura Foundation of the Hungarian Academy
of Sciences awarded Kodály Zoltán Cultural
Prize to the Budapest Klezmer Band for promoting and spreading
Yiddish musical tradition, and in August of 2003 tne band
got the Artisjus Prize.
