 Charity events, however well organized, are inevitably a bit of a lucky dip. A mixed bag of acts put together to please as wide an audience as possible means that most people will enjoy some of it but not all, and the turns are probably not going to have enough time to really make an impression. It is probably not normally the place to send a reviewer either, but we were there for a particular reason.

 Reviewers grow accustomed to the rarified atmosphere of concert halls and opera houses – we do, after all, spend large slices of our lives there – but paradoxically it can get a bit stuffy up there and it does no harm to come back to earth occasionally. Budapest is a city blessed with wonderful performing venues, but there is a whole repertoire which really does not belong there. Night in, night out, restaurants, bars and clubs all over the city play host to music making of various kinds, and Tuesday night jazz came to Most on the 6th district’s Zichy Jenő utca.
