Indeed, his performances in Warsaw won him fans around the world.
After one of his performances, pianist Gabriela Montero wrote, “What a beautiful poet. His voicing, line and shifting from dark to light in Chopin’s kaleidoscopic emotional world is deeply touching and captivating. Listen if you can.”

He has also won major prizes in international competitions in Georgia, Russia, the Netherlands, as well as Denmark, and has appeared as concerto soloist with distinguished orchestras internationally.
