Lore & Background
WindSingers was founded in 2011 by Dóra Vers, Veronika Földi, and Márton Nagy-György at the jazz faculty of the Béla Bartók Conservatory. They soon began collaborating with singer-composer Viktor Magyaróvári, known as Kayamar, whom they knew from the classical faculty. Kayamar's bass-line, described in many articles as one of the lowest basses on earth, and his arrangements highly determine the group's image.
The group has undergone many changes over the years but has maintained its goal of performing pop and jazz songs at the highest level. They have become a regular guest at the Budapest Jazz Club, one of the most prestigious jazz stages in Hungary, and have given concerts in Austria, Slovakia, Serbia, and Romania.
In the summers of 2013 and 2014, WindSingers won silver diplomas at the vokal.total a cappella competition in the Pop and Jazz categories. Their first album, 'The Morning Comes', was released in the summer of 2015.
Reader's Guide
WindSingers emerged from the jazz faculty of the Béla Bartók Conservatory in 2011, quickly establishing themselves as a notable force in Hungarian a cappella music. Their sound is heavily shaped by Kayamar's exceptionally low bass voice and his original compositions and arrangements. The group's success is reflected in their regular appearances at the Budapest Jazz Club and their international performances in neighboring countries. Their silver diplomas at the vokal.total competition in 2013 and 2014 underscore their technical skill in both pop and jazz categories. The release of their debut album 'The Morning Comes' in 2015 marked a milestone in their career. WindSingers represent a blend of classical training and contemporary a cappella, contributing to the visibility of the genre in Hungary and Central Europe.
