Dear Prospective Sponsors, Since the year 2000, the former Teleki-Wattay Castle of Pomaz had been standing empty and in deteriorating condition. It was renovated in 2004-2007 thanks to an EU Phare grant and was inaugurated in 2008 as Hungarian Choral Castle with the aim of becoming an important center for national and international choral music. The funds obtained, however, were not sufficient for all the renovations needed and to properly equip the Choral Castle, so in order to attain the remaining objectives we have established the:
Circle of Friends of the Teleki-Wattay Castle
The founders of the Circle of Friends – the management of the Choral Castle (Andras Hargitai and Gabor Moczar) and the Teleki family (Agnes and Gabor) - cordially invite you, your family and friends to join the Circle which they are establishing with the intention of providing financial and moral support to the institution so that it can operate satisfactorily and make further improvements to the building. The property, listed as a historic building, is an entailed property of the State, administered by the Local Government of Pomaz and operated by Pomaz Music-Castle Nonprofit Ltd. The Choral Castle invites Hungarian and foreign choirs and musical groups to promote close ties between them, organizes common programs and invites renowned Hungarian conductors to lead foreign groups in order to popularize Hungarian choral culture. In addition to first-rate concerts, the Center is a venue for national and international conferences, various music courses, as well as for art exhibits. It also organizes special events, provides quality lodging and restaurant facilities for traditional tourists and other guests whose visit is not related to music. The members of the Circle of Friends can be Hungarian or foreign persons, or legal entities, who wish to contribute to the continuous renovation of the building and/or consider that the activities of the Center are of such outstanding importance that they wish to contribute on a yearly basis to the promotion of these goals. Conditions of membership: 1. Yearly membership fee: 10.000 HUF or 40.00 EUR per person, 15.000 HUF or 60.00 EUR per couple. For companies/corporations: 25.000 HUF or 100.00 EUR. 2. Apart from the membership fee, yearly fundraising events will be organized for the realization of specific projects. The members will be informed about these by letter. 3. The organizers will have the pleasure to invite the members of the Circle of Friends once a year for a summer afternoon reception so we can all meet, exchange ideas and share the delicious food! This would be tied in with an evening concert within the framework of our yearly fundraising drive. 4. Twice a year the members will receive news bulletins to inform them about the activities of the Castle, the results of the fundraising and the use made of the monies collected. 5. The funds received are kept in a separate bank account of the Pomaz Music-Castle Nonprofit Ltd. (IBAN: HU15 1040 3057 5051 4957 5057 1019, SWIFT (BIC): OKHB HU HB, bank data: K&H Bank Zrt., H-1051 Budapest, Vigadó tér 1., Hungary) and can be used only on projects previously announced by the founders of the Circle. If you wish to join the Circle of Friends of the Teleki-Wattay Castle please send us your name, address and E-mail address so that we may express our thanks and forward you all relevant information.
