Ferenc Santa Jr - Alma Cigana - Hungarian Gipsy Music

Speaking of violins here's another type of music that's based around violins. Hungarian gypsy music.This ttype of music is somewhat similar to jazz but not that much. The similar part is that's big on improvisation and melody, since it's (or was) mainly played by gypsies who don't really care about reading or studying music. They all play by ear and make it up as they go. The difference is that the songs are structured much more differently and they lack the jazz beat obviously. Another difference is that it's mainly string and not brass, even the rhythm section is all string instruments.

With those differences aside this is enjoyable for most listeners even if you aren't into such things. Violins are one of the most beautiful instruments ever created so if its in the right hands it can create wonders. The bad thing about music like this is that most of the songs are on the same principle since it's traditional music but then again the solos on each song are fucking mind crushing so they are worth the listen.
