On May 10th, starting at 9 p.m., the Debrecen audience will be treated to a truly special musical experience: the iconic formation of Hungarian electronic music, Anima Sound System, will perform as part of the Jewish Cultural Days, with an unusual guest, Dódi Kárpáti, the charismatic frontman of Quimby.

Anima Sound System has been shaping the Hungarian music scene for over thirty years; in their unique soundscape, they boldly combine electronics, world music, Hungarian folk music elements and Eastern European Jewish musical motifs. 

The speciality of their current performance is not only the usual powerful performance of singer Lili Széchenyi and the band, but also the presence of Dódi Kárpáti, known from Quimby, who brings new colour and depth to the atmosphere of the evening.

The concert will feature songs from the first Anima album, “Shalom”, which is 30 years old this year, as well as from the latest album, “DERRKOVITS”, including a song about Simone Weil, making this evening both danceable and thought-provoking.

More information about the event can be found at the event’s FB page.

Date: 10 May, 9.00 p.m.
