Memories of a visit to the Transylvanian village of Szék on János Name Day Dec 27th between Christmas and New Years when carolers arrived: three Gypsy musicians. It was “wolf-howling cold” out and the musicians went house to house. “…It was 1985, the sign at the edge of the village read: Sic. The country is Romania. But for us it’ll always be Transylvania…it’s not my first trip here, I’m not an ethnographer, just a simple, city person from Hungary with an obsession for Transylvania…” By Szávai József.
