Alma Zenekar: A Great Kid's Programme

alma zenekarJust before Christmas I had a chance to meet up with my friend Gabi and her daughter Nilda. I had not seen them in at least a year, and they were going to some kid's programme at the Millenaris. I had no idea what I was going to be in for, but I was happy to see them. On stage were the Alma Zenekar (Apple Band), and I think I and the rest of the adults enjoyed it almost as much as the children. The songs got the kids up and dancing, the lyrics were catchy and educational, and the lead singer Gabor Buda was an amazing showman, and motivator for the kids to participate. I highly recommend this to parents if they are looking for a 1-2 hour programme some afternoon. Upcoming concerts are here.

Gábor Buda - vocals, guitar
Zsolt Maroevich  - fiddle
Tibor Szabó - solo guitar, bouzouki, percussion
Zoltán Székely  - flute, saxophone
