As a dedicated chamber musician, Bartosz has collaborated with a variety of artists such as Pekka Kuusisto, Sting, Caroline Palmer, Uri Caine, Nicholas Daniel, Jorg Widmann, Piotr Anderszewski and award-winning director Tom Morris. His debut CD, 'Dancer on a Tightrope' as well as a concerto disc 'ConNotations' with the Britten Sinfonia and pianist Mei Yi Foo, have been met with unanimous critical acclaim.
