"This record was born in Bartók’s honour, on the 125th
anniversary of his birth. The Budapest Spring Festival asked me to create
a piece of music to go on the same program with Bartók’s
„Bluebeard’s Castle”. The idea was that Bartók’s sources
for this opera – the most beautiful layers of Hungarian folk songs,
ballads and instrumental folk music – should be performed by me and my
colleagues..."

"... It is thanks to Róbert Lakatos that this production
could come into existence. He invited musicians to participate who have
not only been band leaders for a long time, but who also found a common
starting point in folk music, which each one of them arranges in their
own particular style. So each of the soloists on this album, one way or
the other, is a prímás."

inherited from their parents. Combining whistle
and gardon is considered to be a more archaic line-up than fiddle with
gardon. These old tunes played on these instruments accompany the
ancient dances of the Csángó's living in Gyimes.'
