"The opera represents an extensive musical work, based on a libretto written in the 1970s by Victor Cîrcu. This work can be presented both in the form of a classical opera and in a concert format. The birth of ‘Master Manole’ was as difficult as the realization of its constructions. The difficulty lay primarily in finding the musical language that would be in harmony with the text. Once I found this language, inspired by folklore, of course, I began the work, which lasted from 2008 until today (2013), with a two-year interruption.” – Josef Kappl
