PRISMA - Il Transilvano TRAILER

There’s something about Hungarian music that has
always been fascinating throughout the centuries,
across all borders: the playful freshness of a party
opener, the depth of a tragic love ballad, or the sheer
passionate speed of a Csárdás dance tune.
Over thousands of years Hungarian music has kept a
haunting will to move the hearts (and legs) of the
listeners. No wonder that Italian musicians from the
15th century onwards imported their favorite
melodies as well as general compositional styles.
PRISMA approaches this rich cultural exchange in a
very personal and concrete way: while touring
Hungary, Transylvania, Slovenia, Romania etc. on
concerts trips and musical residencies, they always
meet local traditional musicians who give them their

music to take home with them.
