All compositions by Áron Tálas

You would be hard pressed to name a more thrilling jazz musician in Hungary than Áron Tálas, who has belied his age to become a one-man institution. Whatever instrument he picks up, he plays it an extraordinary, unique way: he is currently torn between the piano and the drums. In 2020, he recorded his debut solo album, Beats From My Heart, where he plays every instrument on the record.

On this live recording, Áron plays compositions from his latest solo piano album, Blue Enough, which was released on January 1, 2022. He describes the music as "something between film music and indie folk, or simply »songs on piano«."

Áron Tálas's art has found its most natural medium of expression in the piano. As a pianist, he has worked with almost every significant figure on the Hungarian jazz scene (including Mihály Borbély, Zoltán Lantos and Kornél Fekete-Kovács), while as the leader of the Áron Tálas Trio, he has shown his talent as a composer. The trio have also performed at several European festivals and played in front of a full house at Müpa Budapest, while their album 'Little Beggar' on BMC Records won the Gramofon magazine's Jazz Album of the Year in 2018.
