Renaissance music from Hungary and Europe as part of the concert project "The Art of Female Power - The Female Power of Art". This performance explores the life of Erzsébet Báthory-Nádasdy (1560-1614), the infamous "Countess Dracula." Known for allegedly murdering hundreds of girls, the show questions whether she was a cruel criminal or a victim of political intrigue. The historical truth is examined through music from Hungary and the surrounding regions, including works by Balint Bakfark and Palestrina. Journey with Capella de la Torre into the dark history of the deep black widow.
