Kriszta Koncz Quintet // Opus Jazz Club
The Kriszta Koncz Quintet draws musical inspiration from jazz, world music and folk. The band's repertoire is based on their own compositions, which aim to express and convey a particular mood or impression, and to shape their own stories through music.
Schedule
The songs are sometimes nostalgic, sometimes melancholic, sometimes energetic and groovy, and besides the music, the lyrics are an equally important means of expression. The quintet also arranges songs from the repertoire of artists and songwriters such as Joni Mitchell, Nina Simone, Freddie Hubbard, Abbey Lincoln and Djavan, and likes to turn to Hungarian folk music as well.
The members of the band met during their studies at the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music. Since then, they have played together in many bands. Kriszta can also be heard in a duo with the quintet's pianist Levente Kapolcsi-Szabó, as the alto of the acapella ensemble Voicedrops and guest vocalist of the acapella ensemble Jazzation. The quintet has performed several times as part of the Budapest Orchestra Project, and the orchestra's instrumentalists are also founding members of Symbiosis 5.
