Hungarian folk evening

Follow

Tonight we spent the evening at Tuba Tanya, enjoying the fantastic local specialities of course, but also the Hungarian folk music and other folky activities.  The band (Tuba Rózsa) were fantastic: listen to that bass sound – it’s someone rubbing a wet cloth up & down a stick attached to a skin stretched over a jug.

After that we all went outside to play with the enormous whips the herdsmen traditionally use out here.  Anna was very good at it …
