Plácido Domingo is proud of Hungary and its musical talents

World-famous maestro, Plácido Domingo believes that Virtuosos is an unprecedented program which discovers amazing Hungarian musicians, whom millions of people should see (and hear). As a public supporter of the show, he thinks everyone should be proud of Hungary for producing such a unique show.

Plácido Domingo says that the Hungarian television program, Virtuosos is unique in the world, Forbes reports.

“You can truly be proud of yourselves and Hungary because Virtuosos is unique in the world. We are discovering amazing musicians who can play wonderfully.”

Virtuosos is Hungary’s only classical music-based reality competition television program for children and young adults. The producer of the show is Mariann Peller, who is responsible for developing the format of the show. The show’s patron is the wife of the President of Hungary, Mrs Anita Hercegh.

Mariann Peller told Nicholas Marko about the show (he is the manager of Plácido Domingo who happens to be of Hungarian origins), and of course, Marko introduced the show to the maestro himself, who has been a fan of it ever since.
