Many another Budapest alumnus or graduate student sings in the chorus. Oldest member is Basso Karoly Balla, 44, vice president of a Budapest insurance company. Youngest is Tenor Laszlo Nagypal, 21, a student at the Royal Hungarian Franz Liszt Academy of Music. Thirty-three-year-old Viktor Vaszy directs the chorus.
