Critics
„The brilliant, European-level musical oeuvre of Liszt told through dance - using moves, vision and dramaturgy from the 21st century, the authors and the ensemble invite you to a very special visual journey!”
MammeOnline, Italy (2020)
„It is not a traditional folk dance performance or contemporary ballet in its most general sense, but a real “crossover” presenting not only one genre, but an extremely rare, and yet artistically coherent model, strongly resembling the expressive power of Pina Bausch’s works.”
Salvatore Frega, TgMusic, Italy (2020)
“… the passionate music that the Hungarian State Folk Ensemble performed was simply captivating; a stunning blend of classical and folk music!"
TgMusic, Italy (2020)
"A spectacular intertwining of folk and classical music in the language of dance!"
