The Barnabáš Kos Case
7.2
Barnabáš Kos, a meek and modest triangle-player in a state orchestra finds himself unfathomably promoted to musical director. Now drunk with power, the once timid musician turns into a poised, commanding peacock and seeks to transform the orchestra to suit his own agenda and inflated vision.
