The book also contains excerpts from his publications on the stick dance and its accompanying music. Owing to his early departure, Martin was unable to bring his plans to completion. Now, when we remember him on the seventieth anniversary of his birth, we try to repay an old debt by publishing a volume of material from his precious legacy, a legacy that now serves as a documentary source for scientific folk-music research.

We owe this not only to György Martin, who was the chief collector and editor of the material, but also to his colleagues, and last but not least to the performers of the songs from whom we have inherited this complex wealth of melodies.

Just gone fest­iv­alling

Nyári szünet miatt az intézmény 2025. július 28. és augusztus 18. között zárva tart, ebben az időszakban az épület látogatása szünetel, a kiállításaink nem elérhetőek és személyes jegyvásárlásra sincsen lehetőség. A Házban működő Vigadó Bisztró is zárva lesz – a látogatók sem kávézni, sem ebédelni nem tudnak majd a megszokott helyszínen.
