Sipos Mihály: Muzsikás Ensemble founding member and violinist, mathematician at the Institute of Psychology of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. This article talks mainly about Mihály’s activities in music, his belief that music and movement should be taught in the schools and Muzsikás’ program of traveling to 50 schools a year (since 2005) holding special music classes. Mihály’s enthusiasm and devotion to music extends to most everything in his life. He and his family have been residents of a part of Budapest called ‘Szentimreváros’ for decades. On January 22nd, 2010 Sipos Mihály and painter Szkok Mihály were awarded the Pro Cultura Újbuda award. Article reprinted from Népszabadság 2010 January 28. By Csider István Zoltán.
