About this person
Jelly d'Aranyi, fully Jelly Aranyi de Hunyadvár was a Hungarian violinist who made her home in London. The great-niece of Joseph Joachim and sister of violinist Adila Fachiri, she became one of the leading violinists of her generation. After studying at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest, she established herself as a prominent chamber musician and soloist, forming notable collaborations with Pablo Casals and Frederick Septimus Kelly. Several major composers dedicated works to her, including Béla Bartók's two violin sonatas, Maurice Ravel's Tzigane, Ralph Vaughan Williams' Concerto Accademico, and Gustav Holst's Double Concerto for Two Violins. She played an unusual role in the discovery of Robert Schumann's lost Violin Concerto through a séance in 1933.
