The work was completed on 15 October 1926 and premiered by the Brno Arts Society, conducted by Jaroslav Kvapil, in Brno on 5 December 1927. Janáček revised the mass the next year. The Glagolitic Mass is one of the most remarkable and important musical religious works of the twentieth century. Leoš Janáček's Taras Bulba is a rhapsody for orchestra, composed between 1915 and 1918 and is based on the novel by Nikolai Gogol. The first version of the work was finished on 2 July 1915, but Janáček later revised it with substantial changes. The second, almost complete, version was finished on 29 March 1918. Taras Bulba, dedicated to "our army, the armed protector of our nation" premiered at the National Theatre in Brno on 9 October 1921, conducted by František Neumann. It was published by Hudební matice in 1924 in piano duet arrangement made by Břetislav Bakala. In 1927 the full score was published with further changes. Janáček described the piece as a "rhapsody" and chose three episodes from Gogol's story to portray in this programmatic work.
