Monika Kertész Hungarian-Bulgarian mezzosoprano was born in Budapest and began her musical education at the age of 8, completing piano and voice studies at the Hungarian State School of Music. In parallel she gained Masters degrees in Linguistics and Pedagogics. Ms Kertész was member of the Operastudio Opera Viva in Budapest led by András Kürthy where she was trained by musical and artistic professionals from the Hungarian State Opera and the Franz Liszt Academy of Music. Her artistic and musical versatility takes place in numerous forms starting from the wide range of opera, oratorio and classical song repertoire to contemporary music, interdisciplinary performing arts and experimental projects. Based on this interest in 2016 she founded her own company called “Lied Project” with the aim of expanding the possibilities between classical music and contemporary performing arts.

Now together with pianist Katalin Hegedűs Gönczy she will sing songs by among others Brahms, Mahler, Dvorak, Liszt, Kodály and György Ligeti.
