As the only musician listed in 2020’s Forbes Hungary “30 under 30” list, Hungarian-Nicaraguan-American violinist Abigél Králik is quickly gaining attention as a “Warm, pleasing, detailed. Infectious” violinist (GRAMOPHONE). Her 2025 debut album, featuring Arthur Benjamin’s rarely heard Romantic Fantasy Double Concerto recorded with the BBC Wales Symphony Orchestra, received raving reviews from Gramophone and Diapason. Based in Brussels, Králik performs regularly as a soloist with top orchestras across the world and maintains an active international recital career.

A prizewinner of the New York International Artists Association, Vienna International Music Competition, Talents for Europe International Competition, Abigél has appeared at the Verbier, Budapest, Krzyżowa, Moritzburg, and Prussia Cove Festivals, collaborating with artists including Itzhak Perlman, Tabea Zimmermann, Vilde Frang, and Jan Vogler.

Králik earned her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from The Juilliard School under Itzhak Perlman and Laurie Smukler as a Kovner Fellow. After two years as an Artist in Residence at the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel, Abigél continues her solo career performing across the United States and Europe. In 2026, she will release a recording of works for violin and orchestra by Saint-Saëns with the Vienna ORF Radio Symphony Orchestra, alongside her work as Founder and Co-Artistic Director of TARA Chamber Concerts in Brussels

“With impeccable intonation and intoxicating passion, she enthused the audience and the press alike.”
