Music has been an integral part of Ildi's life since childhood. She was born on April 21, 1992, in Pécs, as the third child of a renowned musical family: her father was a bassoonist, and her mother, a pianist, is still a prominent figure in classical piano education today. Encouraged by her mother, she began more serious piano studies, but during her high school years, she became increasingly interested in pursuing a career as an opera singer. At the age of 17, she met Prof. Emer. Ks. Éva Marton for the first time in a masterclass, where the world-famous soprano clearly confirmed that she should continue on the path of singing. 'You have absorbed musicality with your mother’s milk,' the artist told her. After graduating from high school, Ildi was immediately accepted into the classical singing program at the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music. It became clear to her then that she had found her calling. She graduated from the university with honors, receiving a degree as an opera singer, having been a student and mentee of Éva Marton throughout her studies.

Even before earning her diploma, she was offered a contract by the Hungarian State Opera. Her highly successful debut was tied to the lead female role (Anna) in Csaba Káel's production of Jenő Kenessey's opera Az arany meg az asszony(The Gold and the Woman). Additionally, she received a special prize from the Hungarian Academy of Arts at the 3rd International Éva Marton Singing Competition and later won the Wagner Society scholarship to Bayreuth. In 2019, she was awarded the Junior Prima Prize, the most prestigious honor for young Hungarian artists.

Her career continues as a soprano soloist at the Hungarian State Opera. During her singing career, she has collaborated with influential artists such as Jonathan Tetelman, Calixto Bieito, René Barbera, Tamás Vásáry, and Gábor Bretz. In the autumn of 2024, they performed on stage in Singapore as a partner of Plácido Domingo. In the 2024-2025 season, she will perform the roles of Marguerite in Gounod's Faust and Violetta in Verdi's La Traviata at the Hungarian State Opera
