My sister and her hubby were in Cluj last weekend, Ákos had two concerts there with both of his bands (Yesterdays and Tabula Smaragdina). Your CD was available there as well and my sister bought me one. It's absolutely fabulous! I just can't get enough of it :) I listen to it every day at least twice :) Great work! Whenever I listen to it I feel like being in Wonderland. You are among my ultimate favourites :)
