Kacper Malisz is a distinguished Polish artist whose work seamlessly combines traditional folk music with innovative jazz. As one of the youngest winners of the prestigious Zbigniew Seifert Competition, he has earned acclaim for his exceptional skills and a uniquely creative approach to violin performance.
