Mateusz, cellist
After graduating with a bachelor of music in cello performance from the University of Toronto, Mateusz Swoboda continued his studies at Shenandoah University and the Amsterdam Conservatory. He then went on to pursue a freelance career in Canada, which allowed him to tour extensively with various groups including cello12 and the Tabaret Ensemble, as well as starting his own chamber music series, Metamorphosis. In 2005 Mr. Swoboda won a contract as principal cello of the newly created Hyogo Performing Arts Centre Orchestra in the Hyogo prefecture of Japan. After many interesting cultural and musical experiences, he returned to Canada where he frequently performs as guest principal cello of the Windsor Symphony, Ontario Philharmonic and Niagara Symphony, as well as teaching at the Royal Conservatory of Music.
