Pictures from Magyarfalu

Another beautiful csango settlement, Magyarfalu (Gaiceana-Arini, Romania).

This visit was one of the nicest experiences of my summer.

On the first few photos, you can see an old cemetery (maybe from 200 years back?); when I stepped out of the door from the beautiful garden with flowers, I saw this hill:



I learned this Hungarian folk song that you can hear in the video, about 20 years ago, from a radio recording with an elderly woman from the village.

Impressions from Pusztina/Pustiana

It was a very nice day on my July trip to csángó villages in Moldva. As a preparation for the local festival in Magyarfalu (Arini, county Bacau in Romania), we drove to Pusztina/Pustiana where I had time to take a few photos.

The Hungarian folk song you can hear is also from that region. (Album: Madárka, madárka)

Asiye - Concert Video

Andrea Gerak presents a Turkish folk song at Budapest Fringe Festival, in her program Set Forth Along a Road. In the song, a boy sings about loosing his love, Asiye.

It wasn't easy to perform it acapella, in the middle of all the noise coming in from the other concerts...
