Endre Balogh
Violinist and Photographer Endre Balogh. On the occasion of his New York debut, when he was only 16, the New York Times called Endre Balogh “a major new talent” and concluded that “his accomplishments are nothing less than prodigious”. His Hungarian mother had been a member of the Los Angeles Philharmonic for many years. Under the nurturing care of his mother and the guidance of Joseph Borisoff Piastro, his teacher, he played nine public concerts at age four and his first concerto as soloist at age 6. In 2004, after severely curtailing his touring concert schedule in order to spend more time near home with his wife and children, Endre rapidly began to hone his passion for photography and graphic arts. In 2015 Endre was named “Number Three” among the “Top Ten Photographers in California" as well as receiving the “2015 Nature Photographer Of the Year” award given by the Professional Photographers of California. Above all, he is devoted to his wife, Mona, and his four children.
