Peter
Lipa Band: Live in Hungary
In 2003 the successful record, Beatles in Blue(s)
from one of the best Middle-European jazz singers,
is now available in Hungary through the copy editor,
Gramy Records. The high standard, colourful record
was welcomed by both the audience and the experts.
At spring of 2004 the Peter Lipa Band was on a Hungarian
tour with Djabe. The concerts were recorded by Gramy
Records and the material of Live in Hungary was selected
from the best moments of the performances. Peter brought
his best to the recordings. Besides the classics of
Beatles in Blue(s) the major pieces from his long and
successful career can be heard on the CD.
In the beginning of the 80’s the Peter Lipa Band
had great success at several Hungarian jazz festivals,
too. From the archives of the Hungarian Radio two records
from Miskolc, 1980 were placed as a bonus of the CD.
This new album is good proof of Peter’s high
quality representation in the European music for over
more than a quarter of a century. The singer, who lives
in Pozsony but on the mother side originated from Hungary,
is accompanied by the most excellent Slovakian jazz
singers on this record, where all of the tracks are
in English.
Gramy Records celebrates the breaking down of the borders
between Hungary and Slovakia by the European Union
with this record, as the publisher is a committed adherer
to nurturing the customs of the mutual cultural past
and produce mutual new productions.
