In earlier years he was a recipient of the Krystian Zimerman, Yamaha Foundation Scholarships and the F. Wybrańczyk Artistic Scholarship of the Sinfonia Varsovia Foundation. He has collaborated with KAWAI and Japan Arts, which invited him to Asia on several tours.Andrzej has made a name for himself as a mature artist with an excellent technical technique that allows him to create sound very freely. Andrzej has benefitted from musical interactions with eminent concert artists like Dmitri Alexeev, Rafał Blechacz, Andrej Jasiński, Piotr Paleczny, Katarzyna Popowa-Zydroń, Dang Thai Song and Danil Trifonov.
In recent years Andrzej has given recitals in most European countries as well as in Brazil, Canada, China, Indonesia, Japan, Singapore, and the USA. In January 2022 he performed in Dubai, where he gave 23 Chopin piano recitals during the EXPO. In 2015 Andrzej accompanied the President of Poland, Bronisław Komorowski, on his visit to Japan and performed a Chopin recital in Tokyo in the presence of Princess Masako Owada. In the United Kingdom Andrzej has played in Hatchlands Park in the Cobbe Collection Series of piano recitals on historic pianos, for the Chopin Society on the UK and at the Polish Cultural Centre (POSK), as well as in many live streamed recitals at St. Mary’s Perivale.
Andrzej has performed piano concerts with several big orchestras. They include Beethoven’s 3rd Piano Concerto in the National Philharmonic Hall in Warsaw with the Sinfonia Iuventus in 2022, and Chopin’s F minor Piano Concerto in Darmstadt with the Deutsche Philharmonie Merck Orchestra in 2023.
