Budapest is great craic when on a holiday. I live in Ireland and I love your beautiful country and the Irish! The weather not so much :) Sláinte chugat!
@@drajanacz.1376 Hammered Dulcimer (which is différent from regular Dulcimer) and Cymbalum are very close, they almost look similar if you dont take a close look.
my father built and played them, and his heritage was hungarian but my my hungarian mom said they were Slovak, and in doing my ancestry I traced back my Kastely roots to the area now known as Trebisov, Slovakia. Sounds like we had a similar upbringing. I'm currently trying to find someone to tune my instrument. My dad built it but I cannot play or tune it.
@@noelstr many of us who are Hungarian, have Slovak roots because Hungary was so large and with each battle lost more and more. The name Toth (Tot) means Slovak by the way. Lots of us Toth's out there.
my great grandpa was a famous hungarian Cimbalom player at his time. his name was lajos gaspar and he lived till the end of 1930s and early 1940s. i still have family in hungary, but unfortunately i have never met them and i dont know where they live now.
Besides the amazing sound of this traditional Hungarian instrument, and the virtuosity of the musicians, what I love is the 7/8 time signature of the second half! Not so easy to sustain over a period of time at that fast tempo.
When you think of it like 3+2+2 it comes easy. Nevertheless, he does not ”think” about it, instead it comes as a natural cultural heritage. It has deep roots within the folklore, you are born and raised feeling it; one can reckon there is a dance movement in the whole. I say this, as we, Romanians, share broadly the same ”feeling”.
My childhood best friend's dad had one of these that we'd mess around with when we were kids. I had forgotten the memories until now. Thanks for sharing =)
When I listen to it, my hands are going to dance first. Then my hands are inviting my forearms, my arms and my shoulders to dance. And finally my legs are dancing! And then some devils or angels tell me: Just dance! And I am all dancing! And, seriously: Thank you so much! :-)
Something I just noticed is the unique tonal quality of the notes played on the Cymbalom, because are those metal "strips" instead of strings?? Which then makes me wonder about the history of the instrument itself! My grandma (Szaraz) had one of these instruments but was primarily a piano player, so I cannot quite recall her playing the Cymbalom, but she did sing a few songs VERY MUCH in the style of the notes played in this video! There was a wavering quality to her voice bordering on the Operatic in styling, well at least this is how I can describe it here now. I will need to look up some "classical" Hungarian singing and see if I can hear more of her voice in whatever examples I can locate. Many thanks for sharing it! Köszönöm.
i know i'm 4 years late, but probably she sing what you call "nóta" (folkish sounding songs that were popular from the late 19th century until ww2), the first form of pop music here, that took inspiration from old folk songs (népdal) and recruitment marches (verbunkos)
Beautiful! I always wanted to own a cimbalom and learn to play until I saw the cost! I played other instruments but fell in love with the cimbalom when I was 16. Now I'm way to old to learn.
aha, we wish.... According to Wikipedia, everybody is playing it. But this guy is awesome! I hope more of his pieces get uploaded. So far I was able to find only one, other than this. Can't post the URL though, our dear RUclips is afraid of spam/spoof/phish, we are innocent victims :)
Can you tell which one exactly? It's really possible because it has some slavic feeling into it and cimbalom (or it's version) is also present in folclore of a lot of slavic countries like Czech Republic, Slovakia, Serbia, Croatia, etc...
What's the name of this piece of music? Can I get the score? I play Chinese dulcimer. I'd like to translate it on Chinese dulcimer. Thank you very much.
Beautiful. Regards for Hungarian brothers from Poland.
May Poland last eternal! Much love from Hungary!
2:40 and on was mesmerizing to watch. Like I felt myself physically leaning forward towards the screen 🫠
Amazing. Love this music and Hungary. Wish I can go someday. Greetings and wellwishes from Ireland 🇮🇪

I love dulcimer. I sing with dulcimer music by a professional and I love it. Greetings from Czech republic, from South Moravia. From Podluží.
This is not a dulcimer, it's a cymbalum (or cimbalom). These a 2 different instruments, very close, but different.
@@V3nom7 Oh, sorry. I don't know the difference in english. I just know that we call it cimbál.
@@drajanacz.1376 Hammered Dulcimer (which is différent from regular Dulcimer) and Cymbalum are very close, they almost look similar if you dont take a close look.
@@V3nom7 Oh, ok. Thank you. Then I think I was always working just with cimbalum.
@@drajanacz.1376 It might be a Hammered Dulcimer.
This.... is the most beautiful instrument, anywhere.
Astonishing! I have listened to this song for at least hundreds of times. Beautiful! Much love from Romania to our brothers from Hungary!
Uh.. guys... guys, I think the bass player is on fire. Someone needs to put him out. He's smoking up the whole room.
How is this the second most liked comment hahaha
A legjobb hangszer párja nincsen és én is Cimbalmozok!!!🇭🇺🇭🇺🇭🇺
Muzica frumoasa, respect din Romania!! :D
I like this
So beautiful. Gives me the goosebumps. Salute from Sweden.
this dude had the highest whack-a-mole score when he was a kid
"Ach du lieber, mein schatz"!!! Ya, & I vas da mole!!!!! He cold cocked me many a time too! "Gifs goot feelingk"!
hahhahahahahahahahahahaaha you win.
This is the sound I like most for this instrument, with a low tone of the bass in the back. The filming captures the warm melancholy too. Thank you.
brings me back to when i was a kid listening to my grandfather's music, reminding me of my Slavic heritage.
It’s a Hungarian instrument, so not Slavic…

@@danielgroza4982 The exquisite beauty of culture.
@@macclift9956 here you have another gem, played on the same instrument:
ruclips.net/video/3435Q6Q-DHs/видео.html
You may wanna listen to it, this guy seems unstoppable 🎆
Hungary sure is a unique gem within Europe
The first 2 minutes and 29 were merely softening us up for what was to come next. Wonderful stuff!!
lovelly, greatest from Czech republic!
A quite incredible matching of technique and soulfulness!
Strangely , the IPCRESS File brought me here.....
Just beautiful !! I just love this instrument !!!
Csodálatos!!!! 👌🎶
Beautiful and special sound ! Congratulations .
Franz Liszt was surely mesmerized by this lovely instrument and created the famous Hungarian Rhapsodies. 🤩🤩
He imitated the Cimbalom a few times! Can't remember where, though
Franz Doppler's orchestration (which liszt helped with) of the sixth hungarian rhapsody has a cimbalom
My childhood best friend's dad had one of these that we'd mess around with when we were kids. I had forgotten the memories until now. Thanks for sharing =)
This is absolutely fantastic! So beautiful.
Zsír!!! Köszönjük!!!
Magnifique !! Wonderful !
Gempara din zona Dobrogei, România. The best.
That 7/8 part is amazing at 2:30
7/16 mesura
You are right, my Friend. My legs just started dancing when I heard this! :-)
lovely sound...wish we heard it more often but thanks to youtube for allowing us to have it?
I could listen to the 7/8 part all day. I wish there was an extension of just that part sometimes, so good.
a round of applause for mr farkas, beautiful
Ovo je fenomenalno!
Draga Jenokem garatulalunk ,Nagyon,nagy nenesz vagy kiraly!!!

this is amazing
Tous mes sens hongrois me remontent dans la gorge. Djönörün tudd yatszani, ez man nagyon szép.

Predivno!

Heya!!! My feet and my soul are dancing! Thank you my Roma Friends! Romano Atmo! :-)

Mi raffigura classica e moderna allo stesso tempo,ogni tanto ho qualche alto o basso ma ....questa si che è bella musicaaaa!
How do you even play this instrument? It must come from the soul!
Amazing!

Gyönyörű nagyon
Ez egyszerüen ANNYIRA egy csoda, ragyogó észbontóan gyönyörü zene. Felszabadúl a lélek repül a szív

I recognize two songs, "Marie-marie" - a "doina" from Oltenia and a "Geampara" from Dobrogea.

Never too old! Stop limiting yourself arbitrarily.

This instrument sounds like some of the soundtrack in the first Witcher game
Can you tell which one exactly?
It's really possible because it has some slavic feeling into it and cimbalom (or it's version) is also present in folclore of a lot of slavic countries like Czech Republic, Slovakia, Serbia, Croatia, etc...
beause they they are bording countrys , my photo is my Grandpa in center playing the Cimbalom
The Carpathian Montains precisely :) So also in the Polish folklore, and The Witcher is a Polish game. Pozdrawiam!
Oh,this is good!
הנאה צרופה של צלילים ומנגינות על הבוקר.
Must see Gypsy Devils amazing on RUclips
Amazing! Does anyone know what this piece of music is called?
My dad was 1 if 5 best in hungary Budapest before.
What's the name of this piece of music? Can I get the score? I play Chinese dulcimer. I'd like to translate it on Chinese dulcimer. Thank you very much.
az ilyenek miatt akartam megtanulni cimbalmon játszani =) csudajó
Óriási ez a zene, imádom, apukám ezt úgy tudta bráccsal (Viola) kísérni, hogy a mai napig a hangom elakad... ❤️🥺
god, I just wanna put on a skirt, sweater, and scarf, bring my violin and travel through transylvania with a gypsy caravan when I hear this!!
nice
120 pianos strings, brilhante.
I would have loved to see Bach play on this!
Harpsichords and virginals don't compare to this. The only thing that compares is the piano, and it works on the same principle-percussive strings.
Romale ,cimbalistos baro!
Tiszteletem
Looks like an incredibly difficult instrument to play.
wow
