OCM - Felix Lajko

Felix Lajko is a Magyar from Yugoslavia who started playing the zither and the violin at the age of 10. Largely self-taught, he is a highly accomplished experimenter: he is constantly exploring the limits of his instrument with a boundless passion. His interest in collaboration has led him to tour with Boban Markovic’s gypsy band as well as performing a breathtaking duo with Romanian born violinist Alexander Balananesu. He defies stereotypes whilst wielding the skill of each musical idiom – jazz, classical as well as folk.

“My music is based on the delicacy and colourfulness of my instrument. I do not play any new types of musical genre, I only follow my own path and improvise and write music.”

In Hungary he performs to crowds of thousands. This is a rare chance to see Lajko in performance in the UK and in the evocative setting of Dorchester Abbey.
