Baroque music concert in the Debrecen University Reformed Church

The Budapest Festival Orchestra brings beautiful music to Debrecen as part of their Community Week program on October 6, from 6 p.m. The baroque ensemble of the orchestra gives a free concert in the Debrecen University Reformed Church. Community building is particularly important to the Budapest Festival Orchestra. Over the past thirty years, the orchestra and its audience have grown into a large, music-loving family, which is constantly expanding and experiencing together the strength of the unity born over the years. One of the goals of their  Community Week program is to grow this family, to forge and strengthen existing communities, and to create new ones with the power of music. There are many people in the country who are open to music, who are only separated by kilometres and lack of time from the experience provided by the Budapest Festival Orchestra. They also help them by taking their free concerts to local churches. In addition to playing with a big band, their artists are constantly looking for new challenges. The following pieces will be played in the concert: Heinrich Schütz: "O Jesu, nomen dulce", SWV 308 Tarquinio Merula: Ciaccona a tre, Op. 12 No. 20 Claudio Monteverdi: Messa a […]

Korean Presbyterian Women’s Association Choir concert

Great Reformed Church Piac u. 4-6, Debrecen, Hungary

The choir of the Presbyterian Women's Association of Korea (PCK) was founded in 1992 with the aim of evangelising with praise, participating in the movement of church unity, and performing musical service at various events of the Presbyterian Women's Association. The start of the choir after the construction of the headquarters of the Korean Presbyterian Women's Association became a medium for raising the status of the Women's Association at the level of the unified movement, both at home and abroad. It played a role as a glorifying mission group of the Women's Presbyterian Association by strengthening musical competence. 2022 celebrated the 30th anniversary of the foundation of the choir, which realised Christian culture through glorification. Over the years, the choir has spread the gospel through glorification with 12 overseas concerts among others in Indonesia, Australia, Russia, Canada, Hungary, Germany, Austria.
