Royal Gipsy Orchestra Tata Mirando/Nello Mirando And The Hungarian Gi - Dadesk Wazst

On Augustus 14, 1999, two gypsy orchestras made an appearance in the Amsterdam Concertgebouw: The Tata Mirando Royal Gypsy Orchestra and the Hungarian Gypsy Ensemble - with Nello Mirando linking the two. Nello's one of the younger members of the Mirando family. He is the son of the present �Tata� (father) Kokalo, appearing regularly as prim�s - first violinist and orchestra leader - alternating with his uncle Moron. Nello Mirando selected young and highly talented musicians for the Hungarian Gypsy Ensemble - in this setting he is the older, more mature musician who as prim�s is supposed to keep the orchestra�s young men in check. The title 'Dadesko Waszt' means �the hand of the father� and it is symbolic for the way this music is carried over to the next generation.
