Since the formation of the Elemér Balázs Group, he has been the band's other main driving force alongside his brother, making his first recording debut with them (My New Way, 1997), and has been involved as an arranger and songwriter on all of the band's subsequent albums. He has played in the Kőszegi Quartet and has been a member of the László Dés Septet since 2003. In 2005 he joined the Contemporary Gregorian project together with his brother. He has performed with many world-famous musicians such as Randy Brecker, Erik Truffaz, Charlie Mariano, Pat Metheny, Robin Eubanks, Stéphane Belmondo, Bobby Watson and Steve Houben. In addition to his success in the jazz world, he is also recognised as an arranger and composer in other genres (pop, film music).

Tony Lakatos and Fabio Miano for this event, they formed a quartet with two stellar local musicians to play their own compositions besides some standards. Their music stays close to the so called straight-ahead jazz with bebop and hard bop elements, a characteristic swing, and Latin feel.

Máté Bella is perhaps the only internationally acclaimed Hungarian composer who has achieved great success in both contemporary classical and pop music. His composition, commissioned by the UMZE Ensemble, also explores the connections between avant-garde music and pop culture in a way that is both entertaining and thought-provoking.

Ponga is a music group that thrives on the possibilities of free improvisation, which is at the core of everything they play.
