Lukács Miklós – master of the cymbalom –a description in prose format – nearly poetry–of this musician’s relationship with his cymbalom. Excerpts:"My oldest trusted friend…we’ve been together since 1987"….his father asked the cymbalom maker to make a companion for his son. "I didn’t just get an instrument, but a life-long relationship…Icame and went from time to time…had disappointments and got old… but the cymbalom was always waiting for me, then we started to really beable to speak to one another…in our own honest common language……after awhile you can’t tell where the man ends and his instrument begins. We communicate, neither with words nor notes, but from memory, trust and hope….[the cymbalom] doesn’t promise anything, doesn’t make excuses, it speaks when you have something to say, and is quiet when there’s nothing to say… Now I would just hope that we still have things to say to one another…".
