José Cura has arrived in Budapest for the Opera Ball

José Cura and Ildikó Komlósi star guests have arrived in Budapest four days before the Opera Ball. We met them at the annual press conference before the evening.

José Cura received a picture of himself painted by Péter Dárdai who every year paints the portraits of the star guests.

Cura told the journalists that he was invited for the Viennese Opera Ball too this year but he said he accepted the Hungarian invitation because he loves our country.

We caught sigth of Viktor Segal and Lajos Bíró too. Bíró was the head of the jury that picked the best dinner for the night and Segal is the chef who won the competition.
