Don Juan

Medieval ballads often gave a voice to the position of women in society, whether they were elevated to heaven or simply reduced to dust. Female destinies will come to life during the song programme The Girl Who Was Taken to Heaven, where we will hear a bouquet of medieval Hungarian folk ballads.

Does the muse of inspiration matter? And what is a muse, exactly? What is the origin of music, lyrics and everything else that isn't created out of common sense, yet without which life would have no meaning?
