Muzsikás

Muzsikás is a Hungarian musical group playing mainly folk music of Hungary and other countries and peoples of the region. Established in 1973, it has also played works by classical composers, especially Béla Bartók, who himself collected folk tunes. The group has recorded other albums and, since 1978, has toured regularly around the world. The group's collaboration with the noted singer Márta Sebestyén has produced a string of highly regarded recordings.
== Links To Peel ==
Peel seemed to discover the Hungarian group through a WOMAD record compilation. The group's collaboration with the noted singer Márta Sebestyén produced interest from Peel, who invited her to do a session for his show. By the end of the 90's, the group had lost interest from Peel and was rarely played on his show.
