The importance of being Balint
Paul Craig Roberts
Two hundred years after the American Founding came a defender of our Constitution's principles, Balint Vazsonyi, who toiled in the tents of revival and rededication until he passed away last Friday.
With nothing but hope and determination, Balint, a budding concert pianist, walked out of Soviet-occupied Hungary with his mother and brother in 1956, crossing on foot through the mountains to Austria.
He found his way to Florida State University in Tallahassee where he acquired both a music degree from a famous fellow Hungarian, Erno Dohnanyi, and his life's partner, Barbara, a gifted pianist in her own right.
Those who have heard the Vazsonyis perform Wolfgang Mozart's "Sonata in D Major for Two Pianos" or Dohnanyi's "Valse Symphonique for Two Pianos" have experienced the sublime.
Balint wrote an important book, "America's Thirty Years War," showing the source of the alien ideas that are subverting our culture and society. (http://www.washtimes.com/commentary/20030120-18874588.htm)
