Reviews of 2 new CDs "…Accepting and understanding traditional culture and folk music takes more inner sensitivity and a lot more attention and patience than say surfing the net or listening to pop music…” On singer Sőregi Anna’s recording Széki Versek (Fonó 2022) we hear traditional songs and music from the Transylvanian village of Szék. Anna studied and selected the material from original recordings of village performers. She works with a stellar band of táncház musicians making a "… satisfyingly complete and unified album….” On another recent album in this vein, another great group of revival dance house musicians and singers have also done a deep study of the traditional music from a particular Transylvanian village and then made a recording: in this case the stellar group of musicians is led by singer Herczku Ágnes and the village is Magyarvista in the Kalotaszeg region. The recording is entitled „Hozomány –.Magyarvista”(Fonó 2022). This one is a double album with one record called "revival", the other one "collection". The reviewer describes:" a certain pervading delicateness and refinement that comes out - perhaps the statement of an inner ripening, …a rounding out, simplification, clarity and naturalness.” By Rácz Mihály at lángolo.hu 2022 May 26.
