The
Hungarian-born guitar virtuoso Gyorgy Lakatos is hailed as one of the fastest
guitar players in the world. He is joined by two guitarists from Jose
Feliciano's band now touring with Gypsy Heart. Their charismatic music is a
cultural blend of Gypsy, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Rumba, Spanish, &
Pop. This show will be powerful and passionate, smooth and sophisticated. Gyorgy
has performed, written, and recorded with Jose Feliciano, Bruce Springsteen
& Clarence Clemons. Having traveled throughout the world, he now resides in
Florida and is making a name for himself in the United States.
Gyorgy
is the fifth generation in a long line of world-renown musicians and he carries
on this musical tradition, whether touring with a 3-piece band or a full
orchestra. Gyorgy is also an accomplished player of the Cimbalom, a century's
old, large stringed dulcimer-type instrument popularized in Hungary that takes
skill and years of study - and Gyorgy makes it look easy. He is currently
recording his debut album on the iconic Cimbalom. His latest CD, Guitar
Bomb, features a song written by the late Clarence "Big Man" Clemons from
the E-Street Band; previous CDs include Gypsy Fire and
Romance.
Gypsy
Heart will be touring Europe this summer and will perform at Miami's Adrienne
Arsht center in December and the Kravis Center in Palm Beach in February.
