The Áron Tálas Trio concert brings the dynamic energy of Hungarian jazz to the stage. This performance offers a unique opportunity for the Luxembourg audience to discover the improvisational genius and creative spirit of Hungarian jazz musicians.
Áron Tálas, the winner of the Junior Prima, Gramofon, and Artisjus awards, and repeatedly voted the best pianist by Hungarian jazz magazine readers, is recognized for his versatility: he has played drums with Lionel Loueke, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Jorge Rossy, Ben Monder, and performs regularly or occasionally with the Borbély Workshop, the Kristóf Bacsó Triad, and many other orchestras.
His most important band, the Áron Tálas Trio, has been present on the national and European stage since 2014, allowing him to delve into his compositional activities from the start. These incorporate influences from folk, classical, and other light music genres, as well as harmonic and rhythmic elements of jazz. Despite this diversity, a unique and coherent vision emerges.
Here's what critic Kornél Zipernovszky wrote about their first album (Floating Island), released in Japan: "There are many subtle allusions in Tálas's playing, but that's not the main point. The main point is that beyond virtuosity, which is almost expected today, his originality, communication ability, incredible sense of form, and musicality have created on this album a universe that is his own."
This universe matured further on their album Little Beggar, produced by BMC, which was later named national jazz album of the year by Gramophone magazine. Both albums feature his own compositions.
"He combines classical elements with unique metrics from current jazz trends, as well as sudden changes in tempo and rhythm. The lyrical side of his musical universe is also strong, and the richness of his harmonies is sumptuous. One of the most interesting personalities of his generation, he considers jazz as a self-educational discipline," wrote Balázs Bágyi about him.
The trio's third album, New Questions, Old Answers, released last year, was voted "Album of the Year" by jazz.hu readers. An international jazz radio station (33third.org) also designated it as one of the best albums of last year.
