Werckmeister Harmonies: A Tale of Chaos and Consequences

In an unnamed, desolate and isolated small town in Hungary during a winter season in recent times, János Valuska, a young newspaper-delivery man, conducts a performance with drunken bar patrons about the total eclipse of the sun, which disturbs, then silences the animals. It finishes with the grand return of the warm sunlight.

The Influence of György Eszter

János is devoted to his ’uncle’ György Eszter, a composer and musicologist, who is like a father to him. György records his observations about the imperfection and compromise of the musical scale, as defined by Werckmeister. György proposes changes to the natural scale to make its harmonies more natural.

The Arrival of Chaos

János goes to the post office to pick up his newspapers for delivery. The workers are unsettled by the ominous signs of the circus’ arrival and the cloud that settles over each town it visits.

A “circus” built around a huge stuffed smelly whale and its star performer, “The Prince”, who is never seen, come to town in the night. János sees them arrive and philosophizes about God and the whale.

The Unraveling of Events

György’s estranged wife, Tünde, tries to leverage her political and social status by giving György a list of names to recruit for the “Clean Up the Town movement.” Chaos ensues as riots break out, with devastating consequences for the town and its inhabitants.

The Aftermath and Consequences

János finds himself caught in the midst of the chaos, witnessing unimaginable atrocities and facing personal danger. The town is left in ruins, with György and János contemplating a bleak future.
