Modern Art Orchestra has recorded four albums for BMC Records, among them Yamas and Niyamas (2020), the label's third most listened-to release on streaming platforms, and in 2018 the most direct prequel to the Kodály album, 15 Hungarian Peasant Songs, a tribute to Béla Bartók, on which David Liebman, Veronika Harcsa, Mihály Dresch and Miklós Lukács joined the band. The album, which received great international acclaim, has been followed by tours abroad, with the band most recently presenting the material in Germany. The artistic director of the Modern Art Orchestra, Kornél Fekete-Kovács has been a key figure in the Hungarian big band scene from the very beginning, not only gathering Hungary's most talented musicians around him but also playing with foreign artists such as Johnny Griffin, Benny Golson, Tom Harrell, Peter Erskine, Rick Margitza, Herbie Mann and Kurt Elling. His close relationship with BMC Records is evidenced by several albums, including Integro / Grandeur (2010) (Fekete-Kovács Quintet, Pannon Philharmonic) and the 2022 album Different Aspects of Silence (with Veronika Harcsa, Dan Bárta, and the Robert Balzar Trio).
