Budapest Café Orchestra

The Budapest Café Orchestra play traditional folk and gypsy music from across the Balkans and Russia. In a wide-ranging programme of music evoking vivid images of Tzigane fiddle maestros, Budapest café life and gypsy campfires – with a few surprises along the way – it’s good enough to make you want to book a holiday along the Danube! Chris Garrick is one of Europe’s most celebrated jazz violinists; Eddie Hession is a supreme accordion champion of Great Britain.

“Joining the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain stands the Budapest Cafe Orchestra, hugely entertaining, immense skill and profound musicianship.”Reading Chronicle

“The boys from the BCO eek out an interesting advantage over others in that they are musically connected to the culture rather than culturally connected to the music and this manifests itself in their performances which are among the most fulfilling live entertainment spectacles you are ever likely to find of any genre”
