On June 20, 2001 a group called „Ordasok” performed at the „Budai Vigadó” at Corvin tér in Budapest. The group and a new choreography are both the brain child of Sára Ferenc. The name of the new choreography can be translated as ..."men's dances and laments from Kalotaszeg", which is what is was. Sára's well-picked group of five men who all sing as well as they dance, along with musicians who were able to do justice to this music – carried off this choreography brilliantly. The result – a lot of men's dance, a lot of singing, a lot of music and the kind of performance that Sára is able to get out of people – energy, with a feeling of raw talent that isn't affected. It worked. Záhonyi András offers his commentary on the event.
