The Magyar Tekerőzenekar (Hungarian Hurdy-Gurdy Folk Ensemble) is a traditional Hungarian folk group bringing together prominent hurdy-gurdy players and accompanied by singers and wind instruments. The group was founded in Budapest in 1989 and was awarded the title of "Young Masters of folk art" in 1992.'

On this recording, the Hungarian Hurdy-Gurdy Orchestra plays music from the southern plain of Hungary, religious folk music, as well as popular European hurdy-gurdy tunes. So many good hurdy-gurdy players on one record and they are joined by one of the most popular folk singers in Hungary today - András Berecz.

I hate to complain, but... these MP3 files appear to have something very odd about them. In Winamp, they want to load some sort of plugin from an AVS directory. In Total Recorders software, I get an error message about an invalid path.

All other MP3 files from here have been fine. Maybe the Hurdy Gurdy Ensemble files could be replaced?

Thanks,
