Bringing up the next generations of lead fiddlers – By the mid 1970s the popularity of the dance house scene called for more musicians, so Halmos Béla and others set about training them. Camps were organized for intensive learning that soon became courses in Budapest and regular classes held at music schools – such as the ones in Székesfehérvár, Budapest’s Obuda. Dance house musician training courses were also held in Győr, Nyíregyháza and other cities and towns in Hungary. In 2008 the Hungarian Academy of Music established a Folk Music Department making it possible to get an accredited diploma as an academy-trained folk musician.
