This recording was born in the wake of a Belgian-Hungarian documentary film (’Keletre kén mert ottan szép az élet....’ The heritage of the Walloon settlements in the Carpathian Basin from the Middle Ages. Director: Sándor Keresztessy, 2001) and an unusual concert series. This is a collection of Hungarian and French folk literature which forms the hidden threads of the connections between Eastern and Western folklore. The pairs of ballads and songs are not like siblings, instead their relationship is more like that of cousins. They have common features and we must look for their prototypes of content or form in Europe of the Middle Ages. The ballads heard on this record are presented mainly in French and Eastern European minstrel style, sung as solos or accompanied by one or two instruments. The other genres of songs are free arrangements using both folk and old instruments in parallel.
