:: SCHEDULE FOR THIS WEEK 2008/14.

7 FILMS FOR 7 DAYS
SCHEDULE FOR THIS WEEK
2008/14.
19th – 25th of  May 2008 / 21st week

Dear Spectator,


after our pause caused by the fantastic MEDIAWAVE Festival, we will try to temp back our dearest spectators in the following weeks with many great films of the Festival.
Four casts worked during the Festival. Their task was to keep their camera on, while the concerts and performances took place on the stage. We keep on working up these materials and of course we will publish the as soon as possible. (HírCity Webtelevision did the same: they were working without rest, so you can find their videos on our website).


 


This time we won’t present our films but the ones from JÁNOS webTV. János TÓTH from Szentgothárd is a very special person of the cultural life of Hungary. Wherever he turns up, he films each single moment without rest. Not only organized programs, but spontaneous actions as well. These films conserve very special moments which can’t bee seen by the audience because they sleep or relax somewhere, preparing for the next day. For these moments, it’s worth to organize festivals.
This year, János webTV saved many special moments from the late night jam sessions in Romer House.

You have to know, that János only records, but he doesn’t publish his films. All of them lay on shelves of his room in order. They want to be prepared! Luckily, he always tells us what he shot. This time I could persuade him to choose the best videos of the festival. Now, I am happy to present the first part of this block!
Thank you János! We hope, in the future many videos like these will turn up from your archive. From these videoblogs we, the organizers can get to know what happened during the festival….

27 April, dawn – Romer House, Győr, MEDIAWAVE ‘2008 Festival
JAM SESSION - DAVID MURRAY (USA) & LEO LYONS (UK) Ten Years After & EMIL GROSS (AUT)
That day we organized the Mediawave picnic in the floodplain of the Mosoni-Danube with 40 different productions. As it was Sunday, we didn’t organize anything at night in Romer House. The following day everyone went to work. At the floodplain I met David Murray, who was walking to the hotel. I offered him a nut-brandy from Zala. We had to say goodbye, because he left the following day. (He spent 4 days here with his family. You can watch a videoblog of the Murray family’s visit in Kajárpéc.)




 




I thought he would leave but he said that he would come back to Rómer with his band. This rumor spread easily among the musicians. It was almost midnight when we – the organizers – went back to Romer. Around ten o’clock the whole Ten Years After was there, drinking with the fans. With he lead of Kiskó the musicians started to play. It was about two o’clock whet I left, thinking that David’s wife didn’t let him back.




 

The other part of the story can bee seen of János’ vidoblog which is an 8 minute long extract of a 2 hours long video. On the little stage Murray, Leo Lyons (Ten Years After), Emi Gross (Electric Blues Circus) played together. It was around 4 o’clock…János was very enduring…
 


27 April, night – floodplain of the Mosoni- Duna, Győr, Mediawave Festival ‘2008

Concert of Eszter TAKÁCS
János works during the day as well. He records not only the concert but every single moment around it….


2 May dawn – Yard of Romer House, Győr, Mediawave Festival ‘2008
SESSION - FRANK GRATKOWSKI (GER) & FLORIAN DEMONSANT (FRA) & CANER ATAGÜN (KURD) & HERB ROBERTSON (USA) & stb.

While a part of the audience was dancing in the Underground Club to the music of Dj Pamach, a group of young people were drumming. First on different instruments coming out of bags, later they were drumming on everything. Our János was there with his camera…. (Fotó a jemmelésről)
The young guys were playing on the same tone, after a while it all became a bit dull. But other world famous musicians were there with their instruments, talking about the concert in the synagogue. First a member of the French Pulcinella took out his accordion, then Frank Gratkowski came with his saxophone and everything speeded up. The music was quiet, loud, fast, slow in waves. Rhythm turned up with the help of the Kurdish musicians and Bors Laca. They were playing Hungarian folk songs, free jazz… Even Ákos Takács (son of Faki) came with his strange wind instrument and later he played his cello. It’s worth watch the video…how they could co-operate. Well sometimes it wasn’t the best, but there were very remarkable moments as well.

 

At five o’clock it was closing time. The majority went home with Hamid Drake and Viktor Tóth, but a little group of 20-30 people wanted to stay together and went to the Duna kapu square. From the photos you can recognize the members of the French Pulcinella band and some film-makers, in addition Csobán Sára (son of Feri Sára living in Gyimes). They were telling stories while the music of Gyimes were mixed with rap.
János stayed with them until 6 o’clock and then he went to Szentgothárd, to the school leaving ceremony of his son. He got there in time. The other adventures of this little group with the salesman of the market can bee seen on the silent photos of Attila Nagy.
