Link of the week:
Magyarpalatkai Banda 2025.
Kodoba Florin is the famous fiddler and he plays with his two young sons who re also amazing musicians and two other long time band members. Their music is very original Mezosegi music and they continue on the long tradition of their authentic village style music. I hope one day they will come to Austin to play for us! - Yoshimi Masuo
