EBONY CONSORT

Ebony Consort is a contemporary chamber‐jazz duo founded by award-winning recording artist, double bassist and composer Csaba Pengő and clarinet/saxophone player Bálint Uher-Győrfi.

Their original music blends composed and improvised forms rooted in Central European classical and jazz heritage, presenting a very unique, refined, distinctive acoustic sound filled with emotional depth and technical mastery.

Csaba Pengő exclusively performs on his self-designed and handcrafted double bass. He received his degree (musician and teacher of jazz double-bass) at Ferenc Liszt Academy of Music in 2004.

His all-original instrumental solo debut album Circles was released in 2021 with Inexhaustible Editions Records out of Slovenia, EU.

In 2023, his second solo album Autumn Rain in a Secret Garden won the ’Solo Instrumental Album Of The Year’ award by the largest highest-resolution audio download store Native DSD based in the Netherlands.
