Áron Horváth, Cimbalom

The cimbalom is a true chameleon of an instrument: like the piano, the Hungarian hammered dulcimer feels at home in all genres and styles. And so does Áron Horváth, who is touring the continent’s major concert halls as a European Concert Hall Organisation »Rising Star«. With his World Music Quartet, the young cimbalom virtuoso wanders through jazz and folk music from Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria at the Elbphilharmonie.
