David Yengibarian Trio

David Yengibarian, of Armenian origin, continued his musical studies in Hungary from 1995, where he became one of the most sought-after jazz and world music performers and composers. He has released seven of his own albums and has also composed several theatre and film scores. The main sources of his folk-inspired music are the Armenian musical tradition, European and American jazz and improvisational music, as well as Argentine tango and the music of the innovator Astor Piazzolla. Above all, his trio is characterised by a suggestive and emotional performance based on improvisation. In recent years, the orchestra has performed with many prominent national and international guests, such as Miklós Lukács, Tony Lakatos and Gevorg Dabaghyan. Their own compositions form the backbone of their repertoire at this concert, but Balkan and Latin songs may also appear.
