About: Söndörgő

Five musicians from Szentendre, Hungary, rooted in South Slavic folk music and driven by the tambura - a plucked lute rarely heard on European stages. After 30 years together, the Eredics family band keeps pushing the tradition forward, most recently alongside jazz saxophonist Chris Potter.
