Ghymes

Ghymes is a band consisting of musicians of the Hungarian minority from Slovakia, founded at the University of Education in Nitra in 1984, by musicians with different preliminary musical experiences from classical through rock and Renaissance music. Folk elements have gradually clung together with their own individual musical ideas.

In the year of 2000, Ghymes had the opportunity to attend two events: the World Expo 2000 in Hanover (Day of Hungary) and the official celebrations of the New Millennium in Hungary (St. Stephen's day, August 20, 2000).

Smaragdváros (Emerald City) was produced by EMI Records and came out in Hungary in November 2000. In March 2001, it was #11 on the World Music Charts Europe.

On December 24, 2018, the band performed a Christmas concert, Mennyből az angyal [Angel from heaven], which broadcast on national television (Duna Televizio). The Ghymes band performed together with the Hungarian Radio's children's choir.
