Music
Regina Spektor is definitely worth joining the recommendations of the week: her style and voice make you think both of ZAZ and Amy Winehouse, whereas her interpretation of Pasternak’s “Fevralj, dostatj černil i plakatj…” made this poet’s mediocre texts sound at least jazzy.
Powerful Symphonies 5 and 7 by Boris Tishchenko, Dmitry Shostakovich’s probably only student to gain international recognition.
«István, a király»: The most successfull Hungarian musical of the early 1980s. The story is about the times when Hungary was to choose between paganship and christianity, but there is more to it that simply the historical plot: at any historical period a nation always goes through a point when the choice is to be done.
