All the songs are about life, imbued with the singer's emotions and freely composed in the traditional French and Hungarian chanson style. The two cultures have come into contact with each other many times throughout music history: Hungarian dances gained popularity in 17th-century France, and in the 20th century, the duo of Jacques Prévert and József Kozma (Joseph Kosma) developed a wonderful repertoire that found their way into the score and screenplay of films. In the 13th century, French troubadour poetry, originating from the Occitan, became important in Hungary as well, and Montanaro, a modern representative of the troubadours and also hailing from this region, found a home in Hungary among local musicians. In the songs, we encounter a sleeping girl, a forest full of love, a slow train in Transylvania, a landscape from the great plains, and a fleeing child. We get to know the ever-loving flower arranger and the spirits of old friends. The programme may reflect Bori Orbán's somewhat melancholic disposition, but hope is always glimmering in it. Twelve songs, just as on the singer's first album, Ma Chanson. Again, Encore une fois...
