Sponsored by the Cultural Committee of the General Assembly of Budapest

From the critics:
Muzsika vol. 43. No. 7. July 2000 p. 45 in Zoltán Farkas, Hangverseny (in Hungarian)

"Leading the A.N.S. chorus on a heart-warming and systematic voyage of discovery through the music of the 15th century, János Bali now follows his exhaustive research of Ockeghem and Obrecht by clearing the accumulated dust of centuries from the works of Agricola in a single stroke. It is no exaggeration to say that, knowing now who Agricola was (and even though I heard only the second of Bali's two Agricola concerts), I have a clear idea where the composer can be placed among his contemporaries"

6 May, 2000
Terézvárosi Church, Budapest

A. Agricola (c.1446-1506):		Missa In myne zyn
		O crux ave
gregorian chants

Sponsored by the Cultural Committee of the General Assembly of Budapest

From the critics:
Élet és Irodalom, 12 May 2000, p. 21. Péter Halász, Liturgia (in Hungarian)

"Bali's direction has the different parts, each poised to tense or relax at his command, moving alongside one another as he by turns brings them up, holds them aloft and takes them back down, and such is the delight in the details that it would be easy to lose sight of the whole."

From the critics:
Muzsika vol. 42. No. 12 December 1999, p. 12. in János Malina, Sablonok nélkül (in Hungarian)

"Bali, now internationally regarded as a specialist in the interpretation of Obrecht, has given a concert which was a magnificent experience for those present. We can only hope that with this, the standard has been set for the next festival."
