On 6 June, the second part of the Grand Final will conclude the 10th anniversary season of the classical music talent show Virtuosos. In this final episode, the star-studded jury will decide the winners from five countries. The Virtuosos finalists will be accompanied by Concerto Budapest Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Maestro János Ács. As an extraordinary highlight, jury members Plácido Domingo, José Carreras, Dimash Qudaibergen and HAUSER will take the stage together in a joint performance.
The second part of the Virtuosos 10th Anniversary Grand Final opens with two outstanding young musicians from Hungary. Pianist Máté Paládi (19) and violinist Gáspár Kelemen (16) will compete for the victory on Friday evening. These young Hungarian talents, representing the future of classical music, will perform before a world-renowned jury including Plácido Domingo, José Carreras, Veronica Bocelli, Dimash Qudaibergen, HAUSER, András Keller, Erika Miklósa, Yelena Dudochkin, and Mikko Kodisoja. Alongside them, Serbia’s young virtuosos will also perform – including David Božić (11), who will present a piece from his own composition. HAUSER, seizing the moment, even invites the 11-year-old pianist to compose a piece for cello.
The final episode of this anniversary season offers a once-in-a-lifetime extra performance: jury members Plácido Domingo, José Carreras, Dimash Qudaibergen and HAUSER will perform the iconic My Way together before the winners are announced. The champions of Hungary, Austria, Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia – chosen from hundreds of applicants – will be revealed on 6 June during the show’s closing moments.
As a special recognition, the runners-up will receive a valuable porcelain violin from MTVA and the opportunity to perform with the Hungarian Radio Art Ensembles.
