Ádám Jávorkai, cellist, began his musical studies in Győr and later continued in Budapest before earning his diploma with distinction from the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna. He has participated in masterclasses with renowned musicians such as Miklós Perényi and Mstislav Rostropovich.

As a soloist and chamber musician, he performs worldwide, having appeared with prestigious orchestras across Europe and Asia. He frequently performs with his brother, Sándor Jávorkai, a violinist.

Ádám Jávorkai has received numerous awards and scholarships, including the Bartók and Kodály Prizes, as well as the Grand Prize of the “Premio Città di Padova” chamber music competition. He has made multiple radio and television recordings, and in 2017, the Japanese NHK channel produced a documentary film about him.

Since 2008, he has served as solo cellist of the Europa Philharmonie, is a jury member at international competitions, and performs on a 1701 Stradivarius cello.

Sándor Jávorkai, violinist, is the first violinist of the Mozarthaus Quartett in Vienna and an internationally acclaimed performer. He began his musical journey at the age of three under the guidance of his father and made his stage debut at the age of five. He frequently performs with his brother, Ádám Jávorkai, cellist — both graduated with distinction from the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna.

As a concertmaster and soloist, he has performed with prestigious orchestras in numerous cities across Europe and overseas. His artistic achievements have been recognized with several accolades, including the “Artist of the Year” award in Austria in both 2009 and 2010.

He plays on a 1696 Pietro Guarneri violin, using a bow that once belonged to Béla Bartók. His artistic mission is to authentically interpret Hungarian music — especially the works of Bartók, Kodály, Hubay, and contemporary composers — and to carry forward the legacy of the Hungarian violin school, rooted in Hubay and Auer, sharing it with younger generations and musical communities around the world.

Kálmán Cséki, pianist, is a prominent figure in Hungarian jazz. He studied at the Jazz Department of the Bartók Béla Conservatory, where he was mentored by renowned teachers such as Attila Garay, János Gonda, Róbert Rátonyi Jr., Béla Szakcsi Lakatos, and Jenő Esze. Throughout his career, he has also regularly participated in classical music masterclasses. He played piano and arranged music for 12 years in Roby Lakatos’s orchestra.

Cséki has performed with many famous orchestras, including the London Symphony Orchestra and the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. He has shared the stage with renowned soloists such as Vadim Repin, Ida Haendel, Stéphane Grappelli, Randy Brecker, and Tony Lakatos. He has also played at Carnegie Hall to great acclaim. In 1999, he received the German Echo Classic Award with his band and a Gold Record in Hong Kong.

In collaboration with the Jávorkai brothers, Kálmán Cséki participates in joint concerts and musical projects where they blend classical and jazz genres to create unique musical experiences. This collaboration offers all three artists the opportunity to showcase their virtuosity and musical versatility to audiences.
