Horvath made his debut in the role of Count Almaviva in Rossini's The Barber of Seville in Miskolc. He has been a soloist with the Hungarian State Opera since 2010. In addition to appearances and recitals in Hungary, he has sung across Europe, North America and South America.

This is the fifth New Year concert the Huangaran consulate has hosted at Moore Memorial Church, a historic landmark in downtown Shanghai. Established in 1887, the church was designed by Hungarian-Slovak artitect Laszlo Hudec, who was Shanghai’s master builder when he worked in the city between 1918 and 1945.
