Report on the 4th Tárogató World Congress. Held every five years, the event was held in 2010 from June 30 – July 4 in the town of Vaja in northeastern Hungary. 160 tárogató players, mainly from Hungary and Transylvania, arrived for the event. About 20 of the participants were foreigners (from USA and other parts of Europe). After the congress, some of the musicians participated in a one week concert tour in Hungary. Hungarian national and regional tárogató congresses are held every year. Musical genres mentioned were folk music, “national romantic music” and contemporary classical music. By Barvich Iván.
