In addition to the double bass he plays violin, which he studied at the Prague Conservatory in the class of Jaroslav Foltýn.

In 2018, he performed a solo recital at the Prague Spring Festival.[5] He devotes himself to composing and is the author of the Double bass concerto "Bohemia".[6]

He is an admirer of Czech classical doublebassist František Pošta, to whom he dedicated his composition "A Tribute to František Pošta".[7]

As a finalist of the Eurovision Young Musicians 2018 competition in Edinburgh, Scotland he performed his "Bohemian Suite" together with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Chief Conductor Thomas Dausgaard. His final performance from Usher Hall was broadcast across Europe.[8]
