Bányai Balázs-. Kresz Géza hegedűművész és családja a kápolnásnyéki Vörösmarty-házban Balázs Bányai Violin artist Géza Kresz and his family in the Vörösmarty House in Kápolnásnyék Mihály Vörösmarty’s childhood home, the home of the stewards of the former Nádasdy estate, is one of the best known and most visited venues of Hungarian literary history. When the estate was reorganised, the house and the attached land was purchased by Károly Ott, Councillor of the Minister of Finance from the aristocratic family in 1884. Ott transformed it into a country home. In 1900 the centenary celebrations of Vörösmarty were held in Nyék during his ownership. Ott and his wife extended the house and planted a small park around. Members of the Kresz family inherited the little mansion. They were well-known in public life and successful in both the financial and engineering professions and music in the late 1920s. Following a brief period of joint ownership, the country house was purchased by violinist Géza Kresz, who became successful in several European countries and even in North America thanks to the Hart House Quartet, and his wife, piano artist Norah Drewett of German-English origins, who was also active in the field of music. They turned the former house of the Vörösmarty family into their country home, where they spent mostly their summers and maintained a lively saloon that was frequently attended by their foreign friends, too. In addition to their family members, the concerts they organised often attracted their intellectual friends from Budapest, the land-owner neighbours keen on music (the Halász family of Dabas, the Végh family of Vereb, etc.), as well as the talented Hungarian and foreign students of the homely summer courses the couple arranged. They furnished the mansion with their collection of applied and fine art that they obtained in Germany, England, Canada, etc. during their lives. Their child, Mária Kresz, who later became internationally known as an ethnographer, received the first impressions that determined her career in this ambience and of course in the village of Nyék. 165
