Still not 28 and yet he has an astonishing career background already: scion of a renowned dynasty of musicians, Kállai attended the Liszt Academy’s class for outstandingly talented musicians before going to America on a scholarship and attending the summer camp given by Itzhak Perlman, which led directly to a place at the Juilliard Music School, in Perlman’s class, and then winning the local competition of the school to Carnegie Hall. Since then Ernő Kállai has taken the Junior Príma Prize, and come second and won the audience prize at the Szigets Competition in 2012. Partnered by the MÁV Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Gergely Kesselyák, he plays two stunning pieces by one of the most significant virtuosos of the second half of the 19th century, Pablo de Sarasete, just after a great Verdi overture and prior to Dvořák’s most popular symphony.
