Dr. Mihály Ittzés, regular member of the Hungarian Academy of Arts, former deputy director of the Kodály Institute

Mihály Ittzés' rich oeuvre still stands as an example to all of us who worked with him at the Kodály Institute.

The highly recognised Move mi Music application is now available in 7 languages: Chinese (simplified), French, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish versions have been launched to enrich the already existing original languages, English and Hungarian.

The International Kodály Musicianship Certificate is a new initiative that aims at raising awareness in the importance of general musicianship training for all professional musicians and music educators.

The aim of Katalin Kiss' book is to support conservatory students (aged 14-22) and their teachers with a collection of carefully selected materials from which to learn the necessary musical concepts and practical knowledge of music theory, form, and harmony.

On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Portuguese Association for Music Education (APEM), Professor Cristína Brito da Cruz, Director of the Kodály Centre of Portugal compiled a significant study on the most outstanding music education movements in Portugal including an overview of the adaptation of the Kodály - concept as well.

We were happy to see more and more of our students coming back to Kecskemét and excited to meet new students who made their big decisions of moving to Hungary to study at the Institute in the 2022-23 academic year. 

The Institute's alumni community lost a lovely member on 21 August.
We were shocked to learn about the death of Jessica Hatton (Canada), student of the 2013-2014 academic year at the Institute.
