The Hungarian song evening "Az idő mélyéről" takes place on Wednesday 11 November 2026 at 18:30, at the EMKE Györkös Mányi Albert Memorial House (Cluj-Napoca, 5 Republicii / Majális Street). Folk singer Hódi Fruzsina, singer Bódi Zsófia and pianist Stachó László perform folk songs in their original form, as well as in the arrangements of Bartók Béla, Kodály Zoltán and Dohnányi Ernő.
The programme includes Dohnányi: Magyar népdalok; Bartók: Nyolc magyar népdal, selections from Húsz magyar népdal and the cycle Falun (Szénagyűjtéskor, Lakodalom, Bölcsődal); and Kodály: A rossz feleség. Hódi Fruzsina sings the peasant melodies in their authentic form, then Bódi Zsófia and Stachó László present Bartók's arrangements, which are often rarely heard. Stachó László presents the concert as a dive into the age-old perspective of these melodies.
Bódi Zsófia, born in Pécs, is an opera singer and a doctor of the Budapest Academy of Music (2025); Hódi Fruzsina, born in Szeged, is a Junior Príma laureate and a teacher of folk music; Stachó László, born in Szeged, is a musicologist, psychologist and pianist. Photographs and video may be taken at the event and are used by the organiser only to promote its programmes.
