<\/p>\n

I am not only passionate about music but also about film, and one of my favorites is The Diving Bell and the Butterfly<\/em>. The story is about a man who, after a sudden illness, can communicate only with one eye. Though trapped in his body, his soul still longs to soar freely. After a long struggle and with help, he writes the book of his life, selecting letters with the gaze of his eye.<\/p>\n

Why did this come to mind in connection with the first concert of the K\u00f6nyvespolc band, formed from Kaposv\u00e1r Group 2? Somehow, I feel that in this digital world, trapped in our bodies, the love for poetry and verse is like a faint, delicate blink of the eye; among the noisy, computer-designed \u201cmusic\u201d (which many consider mere noise), music that displays true instrumental skill\u2014especially when we hear a poem transformed into melody\u2014is like the butterfly breaking free from the diving bell or puppet, soaring.<\/p>\n

It was no small feat on the late afternoon of September 5, at the Rippl-R\u00f3nai Festival, to stand quietly in the middle of a small square, hidden in the shade of the huge and beautiful plane trees, in the colorful, bustling city center of Somogy County, and sing musical settings of poems. Our K\u00f6nyvespolc band undertook this challenge with their first public performance. The festival\u2019s bustling crowd came to a stop as the four young musicians played, and everyone began to \u201cjust\u201d listen\u2014and truly hear\u2014them. Along with us, their initially nervous peers, friends, high school teachers, and parents, the atmosphere quickly shifted from anxiety to immense pride, admiration, and respect.<\/p>\n

The quiet, text-centered, pure music worked: it revealed something both new and old; it made us listen\u2014to them, to each other, and to ourselves. The band members are musicians from our Foundation and students from the local music school. They love playing together with the Chamber Orchestra and the Cs\u00e1nyi Band musicians. They humbly learn from their masters\u2014Andi, Tiham\u00e9r, Elem\u00e9r, to name just a few.<\/p>\n

\u201cPart of me is in it\u201d\u2014me, as the mentor, because the band\u2019s formation is tied to a Kaposv\u00e1r poetry festival\u2026 though in truth, only a little. The idea, execution, the performance, and the recognition all belong to them: Dorci Gregor, Saci Kov\u00e1cs-Nagy, Enci S\u00e1rm\u00e1ny, Levus Sipos. From a single musicalized poem performed at a poetry festival two years ago, they have now built a full one-hour repertoire. This is what we experienced at the weekend\u2019s major events in Kaposv\u00e1r and Topon\u00e1r.<\/p>\n

I know this text comes from a highly biased fan\u2014their mentor\u2014but I hope there will be opportunities for them to present themselves to you, their peers, fellow mentors, the Foundation\u2019s founders and operators\u2014in other words, to us together\u2026 and that their extraordinary music will continue to take flight there, too, then and there.<\/p>\n
