About Benedek Horvath
Artist Biography
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I started to play the piano and the violin when I was five years old, but my earliest musical memories are bonded to my mother. She is a singer, and she sang to me and my brothers beautiful songs when we were little.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Avishai Cohen, Seven Seas Carlos Kleiber, Wiener Philharmoniker, Brahms: Symphony No. 4 Glenn Gould, Glenn Gould Plays Brahms: 4 Ballades, Op. 10; 2 Rhapsodies, Op. 79; 10 Intermezzi One has to be from Glenn Gould but interestingly not a Bach recording but the Brahms Intermezzi. Carlos Kleiber is one of my all-time favorite conductors, and my last pic is not a classical but a jazz album by Avishai Cohen.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Goldberg Variations, BWV 988: Aria” I started practicing this monumental work during the pandemic, which gave me a goal and kept me sane. The whole piece starts with this wonderful theme, and what comes after is like the best novels: there is drama, excitement, and consolation.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? A memorable moment was recording concertos of Dianne Goolkahsian Rahbee at the age of 12. Concerts in New York and in Shanghai, recording 4 albums. I am proud that I manage to put together my short film 'The Fourth Voice' for my new Goldberg Album.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Of course, if there wasn't it would mean that I burned out and I should stop :)
