The two founders of the world-travelled orchestra of the legendary film Titanic I Salonisti, the Swiss-born, Canadian-educated violist Lorenz Hasler and the first to graduate from the Liszt Academy of Music and later from Switzerland, Béla Szedlák, who later taught at the same university, found a match with violin virtuoso György Zerkula, who like the former, comes from a traditional Gyimes folk music family and plays with the Bern Symphony Orchestra. A "marriage of folk music tradition and polished art" comes to mind when listening to the sophisticated arrangements of folk melodies orchestrated for the ensemble by renowned composers.

The trio's concert, titled Between Waters and Forests, will feature arrangements from the Carpathian Basin and the Balkans. In addition to Hungarian melodies, there will be Armenian, Jewish, Romanian, Serbian, Macedonian and Greek music.

György Zerkula - violin

Béla Szedlák - double bass
