Hello All.
I just saw this show in Philadelphia (Kimmel Center) yesterday. Excellent dancing, choreography and beautiful colorful dresses. The music however was over-amplified, and disturbingly stressed the base. Also, the music was rather a bit eclectic, not always peasant music or form of presentation. The musicians were all right though, although the cimbalom was a bit suppressed, again by the sound control team. When you can hear the violonist breathe (because the violin mounted microphone is too heavily amplified) you surely know, something is amiss.
The overall dance-troupe was doing quite well and we missed a male solo singer. The many different pieces were truncated and were not separately announced, so that was a bit of a disappointment. Dancers presenting traditional dances from the village of Szék (Transsylvania) didn´t wear the proper cut peasant hats and blue wests...
