Details:
As early as 1982, when they founded the Agócsi-Tüske Duo, the two Hungarian born classical guitarists and composers János Agócsi and András Tüske have already been famous for their sound, which successfully combines jazz with folk-elements, and were awarded with an entry into the Hungarian Music Lexicon. Their rich and distinguished compositions won them quickly the recognition of national and international specialist audiences, critics and lovers of exquisite guitar music alike.
Thirteen years ago, they both left Hungary, Agócsi for Western Europe, Tüske for Australia. Both continued with their solo careers, and found also international recognition as soloists and composers.
In 1999, after more than fifteen years, they came together once again in an emotianal reunion, for a European Nostalgia tour, Agócsi now also internationally known from TV, Radio and Film Productions, including Young Indiana Jones (George Lucas Prod.), Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean), and as the founder-member of The First London Outsider Movement for the promotion of quality and originality in the arts, and Tüske meanwhile also being Vice President of the Classical Guitar Society of South Australia, and the first Suzuki Guitar Teacher Trainer in Australia.
The tour concluded in London, with the memorable charity concert for the Turkish Relief Fund being one of the many highlights of their amazing collaboration.
