The Körforgás (cycle) album contains poems from several noted poets, including Attila József, Károly Tamkó Sirató, Anna T. Szabó, Virág Erdős, Tamás Jónás and László Garaczi, set to music. The album’s creators, Ági Szalóki and Márton Fenyvesi, working together for the first time with Ági's close-knit team, have succeeded in creating a colourful and exciting world music style: the songs reflect the traditions of Hungarian, Gypsy, Pygmy, Malian and Indian music, as well as jazz and popular music.
The lyrics of Körforgás are also incredibly varied: some tell of the everyday situations of both children and adults (travelling on the famous 4-6 Budapest tram, what happens when your computer crashes), while time is set aside for conversations on love, birth, family and people passing away. The poems in the album notes are decorated with the fairytale illustrations of Anna T. Szabó, while the cover contains a beautiful illustration from Eszter Kiskovács.
