When were you first introduced to music? 

Probably at the at the age of 5, in kindergarten in a small Polish town where I had to play cymbals in an end of year show, I really liked it. Then I remember watching a documentary about a Polish rock band Maanam, very popular but quite sophisticated musically. I was fascinated even if I didn’t understand a lot of it.

Hello Everyone. I hope you and your loved ones are all doing well. I’ve been away quite a while following an exciting development phase. A year of piano lessons and three years of singing classes which have taken me along a path of self discovery and new inspiration. Thank you Pablo, for teaching me how to strengthen my individual fingers on the piano – with daily exercises – which has reaped massive rewards.
