Prof. Dr. Noémi Maczelka - National Coordinator for Hungary
 
  
My name is Noemi Marczelka, I am pianist and  university full professor of  the Music Education Department at the Szeged University Faculty of Education “Juhász Gyula”. Between 1999 and 2018 I was the head of this department and the Institute of Art. Between 1979 and 2001 I taught at the Music-Conservatory of Szeged as well. From 2008 guest-professor at the University Babeş-Bolyai in Cluj-Napoca (Romania).
 
Hungary is well known not only about the “Kodály-method”, but quality music education and excellent musicians. I myself studied at the long-established Academy of Music “Liszt Ferenc”, where I felt the spirit of great predecessors whenever I entered, and it was a big inspiration.
