Ági Szalóki’s Children’s Concert

Ági Szalóki’s career began in 1994. She studied folk singing under Klára Bodza at the Kálmán Nádasdy Music School. An open-minded musician, she draws her inspiration primarily from traditional music and Hungarian poetry. In 2004, she founded her first band and released her debut solo album. Her role models and mentors include Márta Sebestyén, Mihály Dresch, Béla Szakcsi Lakatos, as well as Hungarian and Roma village singers from Transylvania. Her albums are not only popular in Hungary—eight of them have also been released in Japan. She is a multiple Fonogram Award winner, as well as a recipient of the Artisjus Performer Award, the Regional Prima Award, and the Liszt Ferenc Prize.

At her family concert, Ági will present a selection of songs from her album Körforgás, as well as from Cipity Lőrinc és Gingalló and Téli-nyári laboda. The program will also include songs from her latest album, Zümmögő idő.

For this concert, Ági will be joined on stage by outstanding musicians from the Hungarian and international music scene.
