Ági Szalóki – János Ávéd – István Tóth: It was foretold long ago... (HU)
- Ági Szalóki - vocals
- János Ávéd - soprano and tenor saxophone
- István Tóth - guitar
The collaboration between Ági Szalóki, János Ávéd, and István Tóth is inspired by a respect for tradition and a love of freedom. Their program includes contemporary arrangements of church folk songs, Advent and Christmas carols, works by Sebestyén Tinódi Lantos, Bálint Balassi, Maurice Duruflé, and unknown 13th–18th-century English, Italian, and Hungarian composers, as well as thoughts, biblical passages, and poems related to the songs and the upcoming festive season.
The cornerstone of the contemporary interpretation of the pieces is provided by Ági Szalóki, whose singing speaks several musical styles at a native level. The collective improvisations of István Tóth and János Ávéd blossom from beautiful melodies and move away from the traditional representation of the era into a more contemporary jazz context. Departure and return are seemingly two opposing processes, but they are also a necessary part of the basic experience of being a musician; we could even say that they are the journey itself.
