Considered the fourth tenor (behind Carreras, Domingo & Pavarotti), Peter Dvorsky is the most internationally famous Slovak star. He performs concerts all over the world. He resigned from the Slovak National Theatre in October 1996 (after a 24-year stint) in protest to Slovak Culture Minister Ivan Hudec's firing of the director and replacing him with a director more sympathetic to his political agenda.
