SUMMARY:Budapest Cafe Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:Description from organiser's website:Led by jazz violin superst
	ar Christian Garrick The Budapest Café Orchestra play traditional folk and
	 gypsy flavoured music from across the Balkans and Russia. Klezmer, Romani
	an Doinas, Hungarian Czadas and beautiful ballads - such as the theme to S
	chindler's List and Andy Statman's beautiful Flatbush Waltz -are all featu
	red.Evoking vivid images of Tzigane fiddle maestros, Budapest café life an
	d gypsy campfires - plus a few surprises along the way - hugely entertaini
	ng, immense skill and profound musicianship, a show by the BCO is good eno
	ugh to make you want to book that holiday down the Danube! Alike the Ukule
	le Orchestra of Great Britain the Budapest Café Orchestra have won legions
	 of fans through their infectious performances.A small but impeccably form
	ed orchestra of just four players, the BCO combines violin, guitar, accord
	ion, double bass, saz & balalaika creating an aural alchemy so awesome, no
	rmally only characteristic of far bigger ensembles. Two of the country’s m
	ost revered international soloists revel at the heart of proceedings. Acco
	rdionist exemplar Eddie Hession is a supreme accordion champion of Great B
	ritain. In his illustrious career he has accompanied Luciano Pavarotti, Pl
	acido Domingo, Jose Carreras and Chris Rea. Christian Garrick is one of th
	e world’s most celebrated jazz violinists. He has played with the likes of
	 Dame Cleo Laine & Sir John Dankworth, Wynton Marsalis, Nigel Kennedy, Bir
	eli Lagrene and Caro Emerald. Another member of the Orchestra is one of Ru
	ssia's most enigmatic musical exports. The Sultan is played expertly by Ad
	rian Zolotuhin, a master of the strummed strings of domra, balalaika, guit
	ar and saz. Veteran bass-man Kelly Cantlon has been in the business of lay
	ing down the low notes for many moons. Kelly found fame in the late 60’s a
	s a Vagabond with northern soul sensations Jimmy James and the Vagabonds.\
