One of the hidden treasures of London is the range of talent that exists on the folk and acoustic scene that rarely get the acclaim they deserve. Beskydy excel at performing Eastern European, Klezmer and Balkan Music and are worth looking out for.

Description

The music of Beskydy has its roots in the dance rhythms and songs of Moravia, Bohemia and Slovakia, through whose lands the Beskydy mountains run – hence the name. They have expanded their repertoire to embrace the music of the Hungarian plains, the Danube basin and all the way down to the Black Sea, the souks and coffee-houses of Istanbul and across the sea to the bordellos of Odessa.

Biography

Beskydy have performed at The Purcell Room, Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank, at Harrow Arts Centre and have played several Ignite Series concerts at the Cafe Consort, The Royal Albert Hall, and have enjoyed providing Foyer Music at The National Theatre and The Royal Festival Hall.

Beskydy - Other Band / Group - Hackney, London Event Location: New North London Synagogue Event Type: Bat Mitzvah 8th February 2020
Thank you Dan and the Beskydy band, you made our celebration so much fun and memorable. From the start you answered every query promptly and were so accommodating to all our needs. We only had the hall for such a short time and you played for as long as you could. You saw when the guests needed upbeat music and when we needed a rest! Thank you so much for giving so much energy and warmth to the party, everyone loved it so much and the music was so beautiful and created the perfect atmosphere. All the best, Gaby

“We were absolutely delighted with Beskydy’s commitment, talent, and performance. They learned a piece specifically for my daughter’s wedding march, and their repertoire perfectly matched our guest list for a Jewish wedding which was also attended by family from the Balkans”
