Jávorszky Béla Szilárd’s new book on the Vujicsics Ensemble – entitled: “A Vujicsics örökség”. Kossuth Kiadó, 2019. The book’s introduction provides an excellent summary of Vujicsics’s path leading up to their formation in 1974 taking over from an older generation that accompanied the local dance group in the Pomáz/Szentendre area just north of Budapest. During over the 45 years of activity (dance houses, concert tours locally and abroad,etc) the band has made 4 records and has beautifully been passing on their music to their sons, who in 1995 started a band successful in its own right called Söndörgő. Both bands play Balkan and music of the Serbian and Croatian minorities in Hungary.
