The petit song cycle Némulat, composed just at the turn of the millennium, was my first work performed publicly. It has five movements, all set to the texts of the Hungarian poet István Fábián. The poems are abstract and have no connections between them. Therefore, the movements also have the liberty to have very different characters. In the last movement, surprisingly, the violin joins the company of the singer and the piano. TR, 2010
