Dear JOrchestra Friends,
\nUnder the Patronage of HE Mr. Csaba Czibere, the Hungarian Ambassador to Jordan and HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, the Jordanian National Orchestra Association (JOrchestra) Chairman, the Jordanian-Hungarian Friendship Concert will be held September 28th, at 7,30 pm, at Al Hussein Cultural Center.
\nThe Concert held in cooperation with the Hungarian Embassy in Amman will introduce for the first time, the world-renowned Hungarian violinist Katica Ill\u00e9nyi who was awarded the Artist of Merit as one of the most versatile artists of Hungary.<\/p>\n
The special and limited seat Concert is conducted by Mr. Mohammad Sidiq.<\/p>\n
Born in Budapest, Hungary and raised in a musical family, Katica’s first teacher was her father Ferenc Ill\u00e9nyi (1935-2007), who played in the Hungarian State Opera House. From the very beginning of her career, she played many operetta and musical roles, but always remained faithful to the violin. Besides classical music, she trained herself in various genres like jazz, swing and world music. She discovered the uniqueness of the genres that she did not get to know through classical music. From 1995 to 2001, she played with the Budapest Klezmer Band as a singer and violinist. Katica and her father travelled around Europe and the United States and released five albums together.
\nIn 2015, she received the Artist of Merit of Hungary award from Zolt\u00e1n Balog, Minister of Human Resources, and P\u00e9ter Hoppal Secretary of State for Culture.
