The core motif of the ballet Sounds and Pictures is drawn from one's childhood. After we are born, we start to discover the world around us through sounds and images. Our early experiences exert a decisive influence on our entire lives. Musicians and dancers express themselves with sounds and images that can be much more powerful than words. What we cannot communicate through speaking, we can express with music and dance.
The ballet poem Lost and Found is based on spiritual experiences. To...day's world has grown extremely materialistic, and this has the side effect of moving us further and further from the spiritual. Each of us is losing more and more of our traditions, even though these are of immense importance to healthy living and personal development. We are gradually losing sight of where we come from and which way we should be heading. Music and dance are two of humanity's most ancient forms of self-expression, and we use them to attempt to find a link to spirituality. In the course of creating the ballet, choreographer, musician and dancers all set off hand in hand to discover a new world. (Attila Egerházi)
