The performance includes two choral works by Zoltán Kodály.

This production of the Hungarian National Dance Ensemble and Honvéd Male Choir recounts the strange story of a woman punished with death for infidelity, one of the most mysterious of old Hungarian ballads, a tale of cruel beauty and tragedy that represents some of the most profound human emotions.
The subject is perennial: the flare of irresistible, overwhelming love, burning passion, infidelity and jealousy – the eternal conflict of the relationship between a man and a woman is now told in the language of dance.
