Description

Listen to the camaraderie – 2004

In addition to Joszko, who plays the drumla, horns, pipes, ocarina, fiddle, gaji, four-metre trombita and many other folk instruments, as well as sings, on the album we will hear leading representatives of the folk music of the Polish and Hungarian Carpathians, whom Joszko invited to play together: his father, Jozef Broda (singing, leaf), sister Katarzyna Broda-Firla (singing), musician from the Muzsikás ensemble, Péter Éri (three-stringed viola), musician from the Téka ensemble, Pál Havasréti (singing, three-stringed double bass, gardon, hurdy-gurdy), Kálmán Balogh (Hungarian dulcimer) and others.

Joszko drew on musical themes from the Beskydy to showcase the musical richness of the region he hails from. Těšín Silesia, a borderland area, is a place of coexistence of many cultures, and the specific music that has been created in these lands is the result of the interpenetration of diverse influences – the album is the realisation of the idea of consolidating these experiences. Hungarians, Poles, Slovaks, Roma and Czechs can see it as growing out of their traditions.

“Posłóchej Kamaradzi” is music played and sung with heart. The drumla and utogordon, exotic to Poles in the rousing song ‘Drumla’, the four-metre trombita combined with highland singing, the fujara from the borderland between Poland and Slovakia, the leaf, which is played like a soprano saxophone, or the three-stringed Hungarian viola with a three-stringed double bass give this album an original sound.

The album (in the form of an elegant edition for connoisseurs – a digipack – with an interesting booklet) was released with the help of the Hungarian Cultural Institute in Warsaw and the Polish Cultural Institute in Budapest.

“As an experienced music worker, I can assure you that the creativity on this album is of the highest order. (…) Truly great music has been created, to which I attest in full consciousness of mind”.

Wojciech Waglewski (musician, composer, founder of the band Voo Voo.

“This unique sound world has fused all values from Paris to Central Asia, from the Balkans to the Baltic Sea, and its historical depth ranges from the sounds of Nomadic shepherds to contemporary music.”

Ferenc Kiss (ethnomusicologist, musician, founder of the folk and folk music publishing house ETNOFON).
