Mai születésnapos: Illényi Katica, a klezmer magyar királynője, akinek egész élete zene
Persze, ezerszer több mint klezmerhegedűs, a zene minden műfajában játszik, énekel és táncol, minden porcikájával rezonál mindenre, ami melódia, egész lénye hangszer, minden mozdulata zenél. Nekünk azonban mégis a zsidó népzene értő ismerőjeként a legkedvesebb a mélyen hívő katolikus Illényi Katica, a Budapest Klezmer Band egykori, korszakos hegedűse és énekese.
Nem csak zenész családba született, egész közege, egész világa hangokban és ritmusban oldódott fel. Gyógypedagógus édesanyja műkedvelőként, vagyis a zene szerelmeseként zongorázott, édesapja profi hegedűművész volt. Már három és fél éves korától rendszeresen gyakorol testvéreivel, a zene szinte az anyanyelve. Már középiskolásként beiratkozhat a Zeneakadémiára: itt kell rájönnie, hogy nincsenek műfajok és művészeti ágak egyáltalán. Komoly és könnyűzene, ének és hangszeres zene, de még zene és tánc között sincsenek határok: mindezek egyetlen óriási melódia hangjegyei, egyetlen nyelv szavai, amelyet semmilyen más nyelvre nem lehet lefordítani. Képzett, kivételes hegedűművészként fedezi fel a jazzt, a swinget, az operettet és a régió z
