I´m a classical guitarist, arranger, music scholar - music is what defines me. I perform as a soloist or in chamber music ensembles.

Dear music-lover.

My name is Ondrej and I am a classical/contemporary guitarist coming from Slovakia. I played as a soloist (as well as a soloist with orchestra) and in chamber music ensembles across Europe (Slovakia, Finnland, The Netherland, Italy, Poland, Czechia, etc.). Since I love to be part of living artistic movements, I have been also cooperating with contemporary composers for many years and many of them dedicated to me their music.

I firmly consider music being an important part of everyone´s education. It is a powerful tool to widen our inner-personal world enriching it with a colorful and precious quality - music unquestionably represents such a quality!

I have more than 10 years of music teaching experience and over 18 years of music-related experience (playing, arranging, composing, editing). I feel blessed to teach music and music theory. I actively focus on a reliable and relaxed playing-technique as well as on musicality development. I also strive to consult effective ways of practicing the instrument at home and general aspects of being a musician.

I will be looking forward to working with you and helping you to enjoy your music world!

Ciao.
Ondrej.
