I am hungarian from Budapest. We learn Csáth in school and he's one of my favourite writers, despite the fact that he is not as appreciated as other great artist of the so-called Nyugat-generation. He wanted to be a musician, but after a failed enrollment to the Music Academy he went to be a psichiatrist an got to know the wrightings of Freud,pschicoanalysis.

[AlessioElia]

Thanks for your comment and news about Csath.

I hope you colud appreciate the video and the music.

Alessio

Bravo Alessio,

I remember where we know each other in Budapest and this video was performed.

Do you remember it?

Why don't you put online also your shortmovie?

I hope to meet you soon, maybe in Budapest again

Mario

[AlessioElia]

Ciao Mario!

Of course I remember you!

I hope you are fine.

You will be my guest in Budapest when you will have the opportunity to come.

About the shortmovie that you saw during my concert in Budapest, it is not so short...for youtube.

Maybe I will make a shortest version!

Ciao a presto

e grazie di cuore

Alessio

Nice effects...I love Csath's work. I'd like to have seen how this was incorporated with the Opera. DGS x

Beautiful video and great music.

Even with the images Elia's music works excellently.

[gzfekete]

WOW!

I saw it when it was projected in Budapest the first time.

I am glad to find it on youtube.

That's very nice.

I like a lot the association Elia did between electronic music and crazy images.

Absolutely great!

Géza

[richardroad]

I think Elia's music is very amazing.

Absolutely original and fresh.

[contemporarymusic]

That's great music and wonderful images.

It's the best connection between electronic music and surrealistic images I've ever seen.

Congratulations

I'll put among my favourite videos.

Mark
