He made both his theatre and opera debut in 1998: Chekhov's Uncle Vanya at the Teatr Ateneum in Warsaw and Mozart's Marriage of Figaro at the Wrocław Opera.
In 2002, he was granted the scholarship of Vilar Young Artists Programme (presently: Jette Parker Young Artists Programme)[2] at the Royal Opera House Covent Garden in London.
