Albertina Szijjártó was born on 31 August 1993 in Budapest, into a family of musicians. Her paternal grandfather, choirmaster, composer, and folk song collector Jenő Szíjjjártó was a leading figure in the Hungarian choral life in the Highlands in Slovakia in the 20th century. Although she did not know him personally, his intellectual heritage had a great influence on the development of her musical career. From 1999 to 2005, Albertina Szíjjártó studied piano at the Solti György Music School in Budapest, and in 2006 she was admitted to the preparatory piano course at the Béla Bartók Music Secondary School. In 2008, she also took up the music theory-solfege course and graduated as a two-year student with a secondary music certificate in 2012.

In the same year, she was admitted to the Liszt Academy of Music , where she obtained her first artist’s diploma in 2015 in orchestral and choral conducting. In the same year, she was admitted to the MA in Choral Conducting at the Liszt Academy, where she again obtained an Artist’s Diploma in 2017. In terms of the development of her career as a conductor, she owes a lot to the Budaörs Sapszon Ferenc Choir led by Gáspár Krasznai, where she served as a soloist and later as an assistant conductor between 2016 and 2020.

In 2017, she successfully passed the entrance exam for the Liszt Academy’s vocal music - choral conducting course, where she obtained her third, teaching diploma in spring 2020. Since September 2020 she has taught solfege and music repertoire at the Pászti Miklós Elementary Arts School in Biatorbágy. Her main long-term goal is to establish her own children's choir within the music school framework.
