The Muzsikás Ensemble was founded in 1973 modelling the early village peasant ensembles, the "muzskás"-es (music-makers) and they reflect the same world of sound. They have learned authentic music-making from the presently existing village orchestras and musicians. On their first LP, „Living Hungarian Folk Music 1,” they perform tunes collected from several regions of Hungarian-speaking areas.They were awarded the title "Young Masters of Folk Art" in 1974.
