Airplane pilot András Muhi transports guests over the impressive landscapes of the Danube Bend in a glider, and on stage he elevates his audience to a special world with the help of metal music. To this day, the perception of the metal scene is not uniform. According to the singer, the style of music he likes entertains and relaxes him. According to others, the harsher, more scratchy voice is straight from the devil. We take a look at the interesting interview.
"There are people who unfortunately do not understand the essence of Christianity. I know someone who has been looking for it for years - maybe he will find it one day, but for now he doesn't understand the essence of our Christianity. But I can see that he wants it, longs for it. But it hasn't been given to him yet. We Christians say we know the only way. But it is not certain that everyone has come to this realization. Obviously, if someone declares that it is not Christianity, but is going in an absolutely different direction – even in a negative direction – that is a problem.(…)
There is no other genre of music that gave me freedom and a good feeling when I listened to it. It feels good to listen to metal, it calms me down. It turns me off and I relax from it. It started when I was about 9-10 years old and it's still going on.(…)
My being a Christian goes way back. I grew up in a religious family. The Christian faith was self-evident. I have never felt the need to draw parallels or contrasts, or at all to relate my preferred musical style and my faith. The parallels came naturally. I discovered that there is an aspect of music that can be concretely experienced and confessed as an expression of faith. This is religious, glorifying or evangelistic music.
I tried my hand at this style as well, we even had a praise band. But I didn't feel it was all my own, and somehow it ended. I felt that I wanted to keep my relationship with God private. I didn't want to take it on stage. For a while I did, but then I realized that this was all the dreaded secret of the inner room. For me, music and religious life are not necessarily connected.
