Captivating audiences in all formations, Veronika Harcsa has inexhaustible creative energies to match her magical voice. Repeatedly throughout her steeply rising career, she has come up with something new and unexpected, something that would enrich her musical world and would throw a new light on her former efforts. It is now the oeuvre of the great avant-garde poet, Lajos Kassák that has inspired her to create something entirely unprecedented.

The production owes its appeal to the productive tension between Kassák’s free-flowing, rustic poems and prose, and the petite singer’s soft, highly trained voice—to the simultaneously instinctive, intuitive, intellectual and interpretative attitude with which Veronika Harcsa approaches the poet. This is more than a collection of poems set to music: what we are very happy to witness is the birth of a new interpretation of Kassák, Veronika Harcsa’s very own.
