APPLICATION DEADLINE FOR FIRST ROUND:
17 FEBRUARY 2025
The University of Szeged is one of Hungary’s leading and internationally ranked higher education institutions.
We interviewed Ágnes Blastik, a recent graduate of our faculty, who completed her studies in Performing arts, classical harpsichord specialisation. Ágnes came into contact with classical music early on as a child, although the path did not turn out to be smooth for her at first. Finally, at the age of 19, following her high wcholl studies, she found her true passion in the harpsichord, and from that moment, it became clear to her that this was her true calling.
In the interview, she talks about the decisive role her teachers and professors in Szeged played in her development, especially professor Julianna Bereczki, who not only gave her the technical knowledge that was needed, but also helped her a lot with the attitude towards music.
Now she is headed to the Mozarteum, where Salzburg's rich music life and excellent teachers will hopefully open up new horizons for her.
In the interview, we can get a glimpse of Ágnes' musical journey and future plans.
We truly hope that you will consider her story as an inspiration!
