Schedule
There is no genre, it can be a novel, a short story or even a poem. During the readings, music is played at appropriate dramaturgical points, emphasising, underlining or even counterpointing the individual passages. In this way the evening develops an arc, a dramaturgy, a dramaturgy of music. At the end of the show, as a finale, the three writers work on a surprise theme. László Dés said of the performance. In addition to presenting works by great artists, this is a cultural event of particular importance nowadays, because unlike traditional literary evenings, here writers read out their works that resonate with the age, the moment in which we all live. It is a present that promises an unconventional performance. The dialogue between text and music, the reaction of the musicians, only heightens and enhances this experience."
