Remembering Kallós Zoltán (1926. March 26. – 2018. February 14.) “I was in awe of his memory - the way he precisely remembered the melodies, songs, objects he collected in the 1970s and 1980s. Because the [authorities would come and search people’s homes], he couldn’t keep everything he collected at home. He’d have ethnographic material taken across the border [to Hungary]. Many years later he remembered exactly what he’d collected and where each bit of material was. He even edited Hungarian publications of his material by heart…” Tánczos Vilmos - Transylvanian Hungarian ethnographic researcher, scientific organizer.
