For what it's worth in this discussion, at least some DO worry about what is
Hungarian music.  At most Muzsicas concerts when they play selections of
Jewish music, they say something to the effect of: "People often ask us if
this is Hungarian music or Jewish music and we tell them it is 100 percent
Hungarian and 100 percent Jewish."
