Welcome, nice to see You!
I’m a cellist and composer. My music making is motivated by emotions, aesthetics both beautiful and harsh, energy, and cross-border experimentality. My work consists of cello playing, composition, theatre productions, recordings, programming and teaching. I enjoy giving the audience a chance to interact with my works and performances.
