Bio
I was born in '80 as the youngest member of a music instrument maker family. My father started to make Jew's harps in the mid '70s, and by the early '90s he became world well known and his name is equal to the master of this tiny instrument.
I started composing when I was 6 years old. First pieces were small etudes for piano and solo voice, and later, when I picked up violin at 7, I started to compose more complex songs as well. As I was getting older, my technical skill got better and better so I could express myself more and more as I wanted to. Harmonies moving me when I write music. Harmonies are in my mind all the time, they are leading me into directions.
Later, I founded a band, called Navrang. We play electronic world-music, combining lots of rare and interesting musical instruments (arabic, indian, balkanian, hungarian, phillippien's, etc) with contemporary sounding, so that result is something whole and heavy. We're having concerts in most of the countries in Europe for several years. Last year a record label released our 2nd album, called Pangea.
In 2005 I was a semi-finalist on the International Songwriting Competition (ISC) in world music category.
In 2006 I was a Honorable Mentioned in the West Coast Songwriters Competition in the world-music category.
I am happy that radio and TV stations prefer playing my songs from New York to Budapest so thus I can widen the spectrum of thinking of everyday's people this way.
I've got another band, called Earl. It's more popular, something like the latest song: "Garden of Eden". My first album is from 1998, and after several years of searching my own musical ways, now I feel I can drift my ideas into one bed. Last year, Sony Music in Japan used one of my Earl songs for an advertisement.
I'm a member of The Juilliard Music School studying composition there. It's great to have a deep taste into the classical music again.
Scriabin's preludes, Indian tabla players, Michael Jackon's older songs and mainly my family's musical atmosphere and the interesting people from different cultures had the biggest influence on my music.
