THE ANNA-BÁL PRÍMÁS COMPETITION CONCERT IN TRANSYLVANIA
The Balatonfüred Anna-bál has always been among the country's most prestigious balls, where the nation's most distinguished artists and public figures gathered during the summer. Since 2013, the Carpathian Basin Prímás Competition has been among the accompanying events of the Anna-bál.
Balatonfüred City Council, the House of Traditions, and the Folk Music Department of the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music announced a prímás competition as an accompanying event of the Anna-bál to be held in 2018, for fiddlers playing traditional Hungarian folk music. Any fiddler active in the dance house movement or maintaining authentic Hungarian folk music traditions could apply, provided they had reached the age of 16 but had not yet reached the age of 35 by the day of the competition. The public stage competition was held in the week preceding the Balatonfüred Anna-bál. The 2018 competition was the highest standard to date, with 9 excellent prímás performers showcasing their talent during the competition. László Kelemen, director-general of the House of Traditions, gave the young prímás musicians the opportunity to demonstrate their talent and virtuoso playing throughout the Carpathian Basin. Thus, the House of Traditions is organizing a tour for the Anna-bál prímás competition participants for the first time. The first tour will take place in Transylvania between 11–15 September 2019.

Boda Gellért, Kiss-Balbinat Ádám, Kovács Márton, Michal Noga
