About me
Budapest, Hungary
I am a saxophone player, freelance artist and entrepreneur. Hungarian citizen with Tanzanian-Congolese roots.
Improvisation is a feature not only of my music but also of my life, and my saxophone is a secular passport that gives me insight into anywhere. Although I don't speak many foreign languages, in most places, I find understanding with my music.
I am not motivated to be famous, nor do I desire glitter. I am able to lose my ego in my artistic activity. I especially like experimentation, looking for sounds on my instrument that are unexpected and blurring the boundaries between stage and audience, traversing different genres. I don't like to get stuck in the position of "just a musician."
I am very interested in socially themed total art projects.

An afrobeat psych jazz monster of a song describing the modern obsession with material wealth and living the easy life. With lyrics in four languages (Swahili, English, Hungarian and Xhosa), 'Wororo' challenges us all to try and appreciate what we already have and to see past superficial desires.
