Voices of Eastern Europe

Glorious and Inspiring Masterworks

The Eugene Concert Choir is proud to present the American premiere of the Croatian Mass by Croatia’s pre-eminent composer Igor Kuljeric. With its heart in the Slavic church, the mass is rich and lush and powerfully meaningful. Paired with Zoltán Kodály’s gripping 1936 Budavari Te Deum, this program is extraordinary. Guest conductor Zvonimir Hacko will bring the cultural spirit of Eastern Europe to these inspiring works.
