Featuring:

Kristóf Bacsó - saxophone
Sándor Molnár - saxophone
György Orbán - double bass
Imre Kőszegi - drums

Imre Kőszegi belongs to the first generation of musicians in Hungary who were allowed to approach modern jazz as a self-contained genre, independent of entertaining dance music. His playing was most influenced by bebop and free jazz.

Throughout his career, he has performed in the most important concert halls, festivals and clubs in Europe and Hungary and has received a series of awards.
