Last word of Martin György

Coming to life in a magical space will be the birth of a branch of scholarship. The one that transformed folk dance for the theatre, enabling even the bell-bottom jeans-wearing generation that grew up on urban beat music to get to know the dance traditions of rural Hungary. Scholars and artists share the same objective: to seek ways to present the reality they observe. The reality. While art speaks to our emotions, scholarship addresses the intellect. The research and findings of György Martin are crucial components of our current understanding of how we think about folk dance today.
