Ella Nagy started studying piano at the age of 5 with Dr. Ilona Czitrovsky at the Frédéric Chopin Music School in Hungary. When she was 11, Ella moved with her family to Ireland. She has been one of the four participants in the Wiliiam Finlay Programme for 2013-2015, where she played at a Lunch-time Recital in the National Concert Hall and in Cork School of Music as part of the programme.
