Artist History I have been playing the keyboard for about five years. I started to play when I was in the second degree of high school in Olomouc, Czech Republic. There was a performance in the school canteen. Someone from Czech TV showed us how to use a keyboard with a computer to compose. I enjoyed it so much that I started looking for a keyboard in the shops but I didn't have enough money to buy one. I started to attend the Yamaha keyboard school. I practiced at home on an old piano until I could afford a keyboard. I bought a Casio CTK-630, which I still have. I wanted my own teacher so I started attending the School of Art Zerotin in Olomouc, there I had my own teacher. Her name is Fridrichova and she taught me a lot. At this time I started to experiment with my keyboard connected to a computer, using MIDI and I started to compose. I played the keyboard at home and the piano at university dormitories alone and wrote some music. I played with the group Smecka for a while and I attended improvisation lessons with Mr. Tucnik for about six months. He helped me learn what I needed to in music. I played alone again for a while and started to play the guitar. This year I started attending Rock Gospel Choir Revalation Ostrava where I sing bass. At the moment I play rock and roll, blues and experimental music with a guitarist. I also make my own music for fun.
