This multi-art production draws on the song, dance and literary traditions of Mezőség (Câmpia Transilvaniei), a region in Transylvania with a very exciting and colourful culture. Musically, the show is centred around movements from Mikrokosmos, Béla Bartók’s piano cycle, as well as the melodies from Mezőség that inspired him.
The former will be performed by Balázs Fülei, the latter by Attila Mihó and his band.
The production fuses an authentic dance and musical heritage with contemporary dramatic theatre that holds both language and movement in its focus, an abstract visual representation of peasant culture, and the movements of Béla Bartók’s piano piece. The performance is a report, staged sociography, a piece of drama that seeks to find points of alignment, spiritual security and human stability for renewal and recreation in an age of cultural decay.
