Joe Muranyi is of Hungarian decent. Since he has been adopted by
Hungarian jazzers (rightly so), Joe has had the opportunity to play
there on countless occasions. So, he learned the language.
We had Joe here in Mont Dore with Jimmy Mazzy and Eli Newberger back in
1996.

Not only is Joe a fine player, he is a world class gentleman. After his
stay with us, he arranged an invitation for Sac à Pulses to play
Szeged. We had a blast. I recommend the carp soup.
All the best, Gary
