About me

I am a professional flutist based in Vienna and I enjoy conveying my love of music through different genres, styles and woodwind instruments from all over the world.


It is a joy to introduce traditional half forgotten instruments on an international stage and to inspire and bring new knowledge to my audience.


...

I also work as a flexible classical musician, regularly invited to play and tour with prominent ensembles and conductors such as the Wiener Volksoper Orchester, the Vienna Chamber Orchestra, and the late Ennio Morricone.


I have a passion for recording, bringing a new energy to numerous film scores and soundtracks (for ex., Netflix, Disney+, Sony and BBC) both as a solo and orchestral musician.


Since 2021 I became a Trevor James alto and bass flute artist.


Few years ago I built my home studio where I work as a remote session musician and teach my students.


I was born in 1990 in Bratislava (Slovakia). Since I remember there was always music at our home. We sang and were listening to all different genres of music - from Dubliners through Deep Purple to peruvian and african music. I started to play my first instrument, which was an irish tin whistle, at the age of seven. I played by ear with my father in different bands and groups.


At the age of thirteen I attended a music school to learn the flute and to read sheet music.That introduced me to the world of classical music and I went to study at the conservatory of music in Bratislava with an amazing flute teacher: Mgr. Marta Braunsteinerova.


Afterwards I continued my studies at the university of music and performing arts in Vienna with great professors such as Hansgeorg Schmeiser, Robert Wolf, Rudolf Gindlhumer and Birgit Ramsl, where I got a deeper understanding of classical music and all necessary techniques required to play the flute at the highest possible level. I finished my studies in 2018.


In the last few years I rediscovered my love for all different genres of music and world woodwind instruments through the fujara, shakuhachi, dizi, ney, bansuri or duduk just to name a few.


I am happy that I could work and make music with many renowned orchestras and ensembles such as Janoska ensemble and Tonkünstler orchestra in 2019, where I featured the solo fujara with orchestra, in 2021 solo pan flute and with the Radio Symphony Orchestra in Vienna, where I performed solo tin whistle in the music of Lord of the Rings and Avatar at “Hollywood in Vienna” at Konzerthaus Wien.


I regularly record soundtracks for movies and series such as Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power, Over the moon, His dark materials, Wanda Vision, Harry Potter and many more at the Synchronstage Vienna.


From my home studio I record music with all of my diferent ethnic woodwinds and flutes for many projects as for example: Frozen Planet II, Broad Peak, japanese anime and many more.


In April 2022 I got invited to record my solo ethnic woodwinds for the composer Walter Mair to AIR Studios (Lyndhurst Hall) in London.


I was lucky to be able to play many concerts as a first solo flute on tours with maestro Ennio Morricone in the biggest stadiums in Europe.


It is a pleasure to live in Vienna, with its rich culture and history, and regularly perform in orchestras such as the Volksoper Wien or Vienna Chamber Orchestra to name but a few. During my studies I became a member of the summer academy of the Vienna Philharmonic and played at the Salzburger Festspiele.


I also have a passion for contemporary and minimal music. As a member of Cluster Ensemble I played a on their debut album "CLUSTER ENSEMBLE PLAYS PHILIP GLASS" (2016) and Philip Glass himself released it on his own label OMM - Orange mountain music - followed by a tour with this ensemble to New York.
