There is a stage during the festival season right in front of the Pecs Cathedral. (New Romanesque style, built between the 3rd and 16th centuries.) Will include more indoor pictures at a later post) Anyway, the atmosphere is phenomenal, the location always makes the productions even more uplifting. Today we saw a ballet performance. It was called The Black Box and it was about human relationships, a play in the mind, a game in our imagination. Whether it was a real story, a memory or a whole life, we could all identify ourselves with the story or at least parts of it. The prologue was the following: " ...they all play a game, and I know it but if I let them know that I know it is only a game, I get punished, so I rather just play, too...."We loved it, Kamilla and I danced a lot after it. It is good that Dr. Kadar did not see us, who just did a minor surgery on my back two days ago and restricted me from any exercise for three weeks. Sorry, Dr. Kadar, it is not going to work, but you did a great job, my stitches are really holding together.
By the way, I added a picture of Palya Bea, see earlier posting. Timi, I got go to a Palya Bea concert again, ( i wish you could have been there) now otdoors. She had the "search for a rose game ", such a sophisticated rythm language in an ezoteric music setting. Goose bumps....
o gosh! Ever since you wrote about Palya Bea on your blog I can't stop listening to her music. I don't know if there's any way we could buy a CD or something, over here, in the US.
ReplyDeleteI saw her last summer, in Budapest. The stage was close to the Chain Bridge, it was getting very windy, but still, there were so many people listening!
Which Cd do you want? I might be able to get it here.
