Founded in 1985, the Kossuth Award-winning Hot Jazz Band is one of the most successful ensembles in the European traditional jazz scene. The mainstay of its repertoire consists of music from the swing era: the '20s, '30s and '40s, as they switch easily across a broad range of styles, from classic gramophone hits to the Charleston, the shimmy, the foxtrot and Dixieland. Their concerts are known for their light and upbeat mood, witty banter between songs and having the audience join in with the si...nging. The Hungarian audience is also very fond of their historically authentic performances of the country's popular music output from the interwar period, including from classic films starring legends like Katalin Karády, Gyula Kabos, Pál Jávor and Kálmán Latabár. At their Christmas concert at Müpa Budapest, they'll be playing tunes related to the holiday, in the Hott Jazz Band's trademark swing arrangement.
