Bónis Ferenc: Life on Track Zoltán Kodály

Description

The author owes special thanks to Mrs Zoltán Kodály née Sarolta Péczely for the previously unheard-of richness of the volume's fundamental material - data and documents - at his disposal. All he had to do was to retrieve from them a story of interrelated events: the progression of Kodály's life on track. The founder and maintainer of the Kodály Archives, Mrs Kodály kindly assisted the author in acquainting himself with three important collections therein: that of the letters written to Kodály, the household journals of Madame Emma (the Master's first wife), and thousands of photos and other documents.
