The Heveder band was founded in 2002.  They come to us as part of their North American tour. In their home town Sepsiszentgyörgy, Szeklerland, they are the hosts of regular táncház, and they will be playing during the Csipke workshop of Hungarian folk dance in Michigan. This time there are two guest musicians touring with them:

Picture
Kodoba Florin, the concertmaster of the Palatka group, who happens to be the son of the famous concertmaster from Magyarpalatka, Márton Kodoba.

Koncz Gergely is a member of the Tükrös band, and he likes to partner with many other folk musicians in order to finess and expand his technique.
