Michał Bylinais a Polish bassist and composer whose work bridges early music performance and new music for the instrument. In this conversation, Michał shares how a love of the past pulled them toward gut strings, Baroque style, and the Vienna bass tradition, plus the path from studying in Kraków to a year studying in Brussels with Korneel Le Compte.
We dig into Michał's composing process, from writing cadenzas to building a huge library of bass sheet music and learning by analysis, along with current projects like a concerto inspired by the surviving bars of Dittersdorf's concerto for violone and an aria for countertenor and obbligato bass.
Michał also talks about balancing music with life as a parent and work as a software developer, and what might come next. Connect with Michał on Instagram and Facebook, and explore his catalog on his website and in our DBHQ Store!
