György Szabados organised Christmas concerts in Budapest in the 1980s and early 1990s. After his death in 2015, the Adyton Art Foundation, which aims to keep his legacy alive, took over to organise events continuing his original initiative under the title Adyton Christmas.
Szabados' musical world is complex and multifaceted, opening many paths leading in different directions and offering many points of connection. Among his former musical partners, István Grencsó and Szilárd Mezei have built their own musical worlds based mainly on the technique and spirit of free music. Today, both of them have moved quite far away from traditional jazz, and their music could be labelled as improvised contemporary music beyond free jazz. Róbert Benkő is Grencsó's oldest collaborator, who has joined him in a constant search for new paths and changes of direction, and with whom they have an intuitive understanding of each other. Barnabás Dukay, the hiding icon of contemporary music, comes from a completely different direction. A composer, musicologist and Bach scholar, Dukay believes that in music, you have to improvise everything you can. This could be the motto of his ten-year-old collaboration with Grencsó, during which they have made wonderful recordings very difficult to classify.
Three composers and an inspired bassist on the stage. The absence of percussion is no coincidence, as their music is not organized around rhythmic bases. Composing in real time is one of the most risky art forms, with no anchors, no safety net (say, sheet music). It depends on nuances whether it's free-flying or free-falling. They've never ever failed yet, presenting the miracle of creation in deep harmony.
