Makám is one of the oldest Hungarian representatives of ethno-folk and world music. The band has performed in many European countries, from Paris to Varna, from Krakow to Split, and has also toured in India. In addition to Hungarian folk music, their music also includes influences from the Far East, the Balkans, jazz and contemporary music. Its soundscape is made unique by the harmony of ethnic and traditional European instruments. Its latest era is characterized by the rediscovery of archaic forms of Hungarian folk music and songs.
Their recently released records have a personal style, an intimate mixture of exotic rhythms and lyrical confessions. The heritage marked by the names of Bartók and Kodály, the synthesis of archaic cultures and the musical elements of the age is the unchanging creed of Makám.
