WORLD MUSIC
The album that we would proudly like to present you is another
record by Joszko Broda, who plays the Jew’s harp, the four-metre
mountain trumpet, the horns, various types of pipes and ocarinas,
the violin and many other folk instruments. He also sings.
Joszko has invited key representatives of folk music from the
Polish and Hungarian Carpathians to play together with him. We’ll
have an opportunity to listen to, among others, his father Józef
Broda (vocals, traditional folk instruments), his sister Katarzyna
Broda-Firla (vocals), Peter Eri (three-stringed viola), a member
of Muzsikas band from Hungary, Pal Havasreti (three-stringed
double bass, gardon, crank lyre, vocals), or Kalman Balogh
(Hungarian dulcimer).
The music is pure and good, played passionately by Joszko, his
father Józef and the Hungarians, and sung by the Highlanders. It
exhibits the deepest yearning for the source, the desire to reach
those deep spheres of our heart, which are never controlled by the
mind, and which pulsate with life. Music, which testifies to the
cultural community of the peoples of the Carpathians to such an
extent that Hungarians, Poles, Czechs and Slovaks can regard it as
stemming from their traditions. Superb dowry that we are bringing
to the European Union.
The album was released with a special interesting booklet in a
digipack form for connoisseurs.

“(…) As an experienced musician I can assure you that music on this CD is of the
highest quality. (…)The music that has been created is truly great, which I
assure you of being totally clear in my head.”
Wojtek Waglewski - (musician, composer, arranger, founder of Voo Voo
music band)
“(…)This distinctive world of sounds has integrated in itself all the ideals
from Paris to Central Asia, from the Balkans to the Baltic Sea. In its historic
depth it derives from Norman shepherds to contemporary music.”

His family has lived in the Beskidy Mountins (part of the Carpathians)
since the 12th century. He takes his music traditions and skills after
his father, who has been an acknowledged Polish folk musician for forty
years. His music is deeply rooted in highlander folk music, which
literally brought him up and inspired his numerous artistic
undertakings. Joszko has recorded over 50 albums as a session musician,
he has his own band “Dzieci z Brodą” [eng. “Children with Beard”,
“Broda” in Polish stand for “beard”), which has already recorded two
albums and he is a musician active in a number of projects. He also
