Early life

At an early point in his career, Imre was inspired by the blues, which can be clearly heard in his piano playing. He has been a member of several top blues bands and has performed on the same stages with B. B. King, Sting, Zucchero, Pink and Robben Ford. Imre has appeared on over 110 albums and as a composer, arranger, orchestrator, music producer and musician. He has been the recipient of 18 Gold, 14 Platinum and 4 Double Platinum albums. In the pop music world his most notable success was with the band Nox, who went on to win a number of local awards, including the Golden Giraffe, which is the Hungarian equivalent of the American Grammy.

Theatre

In 2000 Imre’s career took a different turn when he was asked to compose music for several successful plays such as Merlin Theatre’s Deathtrap. That experience lead to a meeting with choreographer Sandor Roman with whom Imre developed the unique harmony of dance and music for ExperiDance. The dance group is committed to the heritage of Hungarian folk dance. Imre is successfully composing an outstanding music repertoire built around Hungarian folk music but also manages to step outside its boundaries. This new musical direction has turned into a romantic and grandiose part of world-music. These stage-shows are regularly played on the main stages of Budapest’s top theaters, and in bigger cities countrywide as guest-performances. He has many successful musical plays, for example Birth of a Country(2007). The shows were performed with 250 dancers and 10 singers at Budapest’s most famous Hero Square. Untouchables(2012) played at the Margaret Island Open Air Stage and The Taming of the Shrew (Makrancos Kata)(2013) played at the RaM Colosseum.

Sporting Events Official Songs

In 2006 Imre also got the opportunity to compose the official song of the 2006 European Aquatics Championships. Sport lovers all over the continent enjoyed the song and it went platinum on the day of its CD release. This led to Imre composing the Hungarian Olympic Team’s official song in 2008, the Judo European Championship’s official song in 2013 and Evgeni Plushenko’s Russian National Championship and Winter Olympic Music.
