Info for Soundtrack

This trio performs Gábor Horváth's compositions, and the musicians following the acoustic jazz sound subtly mix various other musical styles (like soundtrack, pop, folk, classical music ) into it. You can hear a wide variety of songs on this album from softer, lyrical songs to modern jazz that they perform with excellent consonance and brilliant sense of form. On this album they have compiled their own new compositions which could be the soundtrack of any person's weekday life from the awakening in the morning till returning home in the evening. The album could be the "Original Motion Picture Soundtrack" of one of our days.
