Tükrös won the 'Young Masters of Folk Arts' Award in 2001. Their latest album "Our Transylvanian Heath" won the "Fonogram" Award for Authentic Hungarian Folk Music in 2010. The Orchestra has toured throughout Europe, the United States and Australia with various dance ensembles. Musicians of Tükrös are gifted and spirited proponents of traditional folk music. This music will transport you into the village lives of the films Gadjo Dilo and Latcho Drom. Perhaps Béla Bartók described it best; "beautiful to the ear, beautiful to the eye."  Musicians: Attila Halmos - first violinist, voice. Péter Árendás – viola. Gergely Koncz - violin and viola. Endre Liber – cimbalom (dulcimer), viola, vocals. András Lelkes – double bass
