Together with her brother László, Niki founded the Vörös Niki Quartet in 2005, which plays continuously in Hungary and abroad.

“There are things we search for years only to find they were with us all along...” That is how I was with Michel Legrand’s songs, I felt as if I knew them all, I sang them from my heart, through them I was able to express my true self. Most important, I was able to realise my own musical world through these songs, without really disturbing theirs. It was a wonderful encounter and exciting work."
