It is always important to emphasize Hungary's thousand-year commitment to the Christian faith. The authors and performers of the Magyar Mise show have been actively involved in this task for years. In the current, challenging period, this mission fulfills an even more important task.

In 2021, we would like to promote the message of the performance among our countrymen from the highlands. Another goal of the program is to focus attention on the events that define the history, sacred art and traditions of the Hungarian nation to this day, and to enrich the communities receiving the performance with lasting experiences, as well as to strengthen our sense of belonging through faith and music.

The organizers of the performance cordially invite members of the Hungarian community in the Uplands in August at the following locations.

August 15 (Sunday), 17.00 Borsi, Rákóczi Castle

August 21 (Saturday), 17.30 Jászó, Premontrei Abbey Church of John the Baptist

The rock oratorio "Hungarian Mass" was composed to the music of the Ferenc Prize-winning composer Erkel László Tolcsvay and the text of the Kossuth Prize-winning composer and lyricist Béla Tolcsvay. It premiered in 1987. During its decades-long success story, it was presented in many places in the Carpathian Basin and the world.

The structure of the work follows the Roman Catholic liturgy, and a transcription suitable for church performance was completed almost twenty years ago, and since then it is often heard as part of the Holy Mass, as an integral part of the liturgy. Since its premiere, the piece has been played hundreds of times.

It has been proven that his message fulfills its mission within the walls of concert halls, at open-air performances and in sanctified places, churches and congregations, that is, he proclaims the Hungarian nation's commitment to Christian values ​​with faith and music.
