Gábor Csalog Sundays – Dialogues with (the) Music
Schumann and Bartók dances
Featuring:
Gábor Csalog – piano
Gergely Fazekas, musicologist
There is no dance without music, but is there music without dance? The question is, who (or what) dances to the dance music of Bartók and Schumann? Is it our mind? Our soul? Or does the music itself dance? For this concert, Gábor Csalog has selected dance music by two composers whose music was never danced to (at least not written with that purpose in mind), but whose pieces, from the most sensuous and tactile examples to the most stylized movements, show all the layers of the genre. And although both Bartók and Schumann believed that music was a transcendent phenomenon in itself, and very rarely commented on the poetic content of their music, Schumann's dance music evokes many of the figures of his private mythology, while Bartók's dance movements, if properly interpreted, offer a socio-political programme that is still valid today. These questions will also be discussed in the first half of the concert, with music historian Gergely Fazekas as Gábor Csalog's conversation partner.
In the eclectic programme of Zita Gereben and her orchestra, the songs have the characteristics of R’n’B, pop, blues and, of course, jazz. The Hungarian singer-songwriter founded her band in 2009; so far, they have recorded three albums of their own compositions, and are planning to release their fourth album this year.
The quartet of István Grencsó, Szilárd Mezei, Ernő Hock and Szilveszter Miklós brings together musicians who all admire spontaneous music of the moment. After years of organizing, they performed together for the first time in February 2023.
In the musicality of the Szilvia Bognár Sextet, three musical worlds meet and intertwine. The outstanding performers of the Hungarian jazz and world music scene, also highlighting their individual styles, combine folk songs of different nationalities with the characteristic motifs and moods of jazz and Indian classical music into a harmonious whole.
