beck@grecsó: hoztunk valamit magunkból (we've brought something of ourselves)
Album launch concert
24 January 2023, Tuesday
7 pm - 8:50 pm
Festival Theatre
Produced by Müpa Budapest

The time-traveling, musical/literary "hoztunk valamit magunkból” ("we've brought something of ourselves”) podium night featuring Zoli Beck, the frontman of 30Y, and Krisztián Grecsó, one of Hungary's most popular writers, has been made into an album, and now they are presenting it, the musician who - frequently - reads text aloud and the writer who - quite often - has a guitar with him. These jointly written songs were born from the mutually inspiring works of the two creative artists and longtime friends, and this increasingly intense work has yielded an LP that will also be released on vinyl, and which the audience will be able hear live for the first time on this January evening.

An album on nice-looking vinyl, with new songs on it. "hoztunk valamit magunkból” is the first joint work by songwriter/writer Zoltán Beck and writer/songwriter Krisztián Grecsó. So far, just the bare facts. Between the lines there lies an old friendship, a joint performance, and much shared living, travel and long nights and suddenly arriving mornings. The "hoztunk valamit magunkból” evenings both represented and documented the increasingly intense joint work of the two artists, while the songs they wrote together each evening came together into an almost thematic record. The sound, style, and power of the songs come from the material recorded after a great deal of work, experimentation, and maturation, which the performers recorded with producer György Ligeti at the ZAJZAJZAJ studio in Pécs. And now the material thus prepared and recorded is becoming (yet another) evening on the stage.
