October 31 / Saturday / 16.00 - 17.00
The encounter between the Moldavian Csángó Hungarian ballad and Eastern spirituality provides an opportunity to regard death not merely as a loss, but in the context of human existence, fate, and inner transformation.
Why did János Bíró not allow his identity to be revealed to his parents upon his return from Turkish captivity? What deeper meaning lies hidden in the ballad's moving story? We seek answers to these questions through a joint, interactive analysis of the ballad's text.
In addition to a spiritual interpretation of the story, the presentation will also showcase the distinctive stylistic features and aesthetic beauty of Moldavian Csángó folk music, which make the ballad exceptional as a musical experience as well.
