Barabás Lőrinc Solo

Barabás Lőrinc started his solo career with his 2013 album Sastra, followed by Elevator Dance Music in 2015 and Algorhythms in 2019. His latest album, "22", released at the end of 2023, shows another face of him: compared to his previous solo album, the piano is even more prominent; there are several compositions in which he doesn’t even play the trumpet. Although there is some improvisation, it has little to do with jazz: the minimalist, repetitive pieces are close in spirit to the neoclassical movement of Nils Frahm and Ólafur Arnalds. 

According to Barabás Lőrinc , the melancholic, film music-like tracks express the need to slow down and turn inwards in a speeding world. World-renowned Japanese jazz trumpeter Takuya Kuroda wrote of "22": "Beautiful melody throughout the album. Amazing compositions with great theme development. Super soulful playing on both piano and the trumpet."

Barabás Lőrinc Quartet

The Barabás Lőrinc Quartet, founded in 2015, channels the spirit of ’60s and ’70s jazz-rock, infused with world music influences and elements of instrumental pop. The group has released three albums featuring compositions by Barabás Lőrinc.

With its current lineup—Premecz Mátyás (keyboards), Ajtai Péter (double bass), and Klausz Ádám (drums)—the quartet delivers an energetic, genre-crossing sound that is as captivating as it is distinctive, creating a vibrant fusion that pushes the boundaries of contemporary jazz and instrumental music, as they have proven in numerous local and international performances.
