Plácido Domingo and Matteo Bocelli | Hard Rock Hotel Budapest turned into a community space for the new season of Virtuosos V4+

Between 10 and 23 July, the recently opened Hard Rock Hotel Budapest will provide rest and preparation for the internationally renowned Virtuosos V4+ performers and contestants, including Plácido Domingo, Matteo Bocelli, HAUSER and Pablo Sainz Villegas.

Virtuosos is the first Hungarian classical music show, launched in 2014 to discover young talent and further support their musical careers. Launched in 2020, Virtuosos V4+ brings together musicians from the Visegrad Group countries and one guest country each year—this year, Slovenia joined the competition..

Contestants, jury members and mentors will enjoy the same five-star luxury experience at the Hard Rock Hotel in Budapest, which awaits customers since March, as the first Central European member of the chain. The organizers’ aim is to make the Nagymező Street building a haven of culture and classical music during this period.
