His repertoire combines original compositions and standards, reinterpreted with sensitivity and creative freedom.<\/p>\n

His training blends classical and folk roots with an early love for jazz: \u201cYes, standards are very important to me; I love playing the jazz tradition, but interpreting it in my own way<\/em>\u201d Gayer<\/strong> says. Reflecting on his earliest musical influences, he adds: \u201cThe first music I listened to was Hungarian folk, which my mother used to sing when I was a child. I studied classical piano and fell in love with Bach, Chopin, Bart\u00f3k\u2026 My father introduced me to some jazz records, and from then on, I wanted to improvise.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

For this concert, Matyas Gayer<\/strong> is joined by five exceptional musicians to explore original compositions and jazz classics with energy, improvisation, and constant dialogue, keeping the spirit of jazz alive in every phrase.<\/p>\n
