About

I'm a violinist and artist, acclaimed for my musicianship, technique, as well as for the integrity of my playing. I works with many the orchestras, chamber ensemblesand and greatest conductors in the european’s premier recital halls and theatres. I was born and brought up in a musical family in Kielce, Poland. To play in an orchestra is my passion and a big part of my life, since I started to do it at the age of 6. I have worked officially as a freelance orchestra player since my graduation 2005. I'm mostly playing in German orchestras, but sometimes I get a chance to join the other orchestras more far away. 


I'm founder of the music project Summer meetings with music. Mozart on Vacation, which the first edition took place in July 2019 in historic spaces near Krakow in Poland.
