Krzesimir Dębski

Conductor

Award winning composer, jazzman and conductor, Krzesimir Dębski is one of the most outstanding Polish artists. His works are performed by world-class musicians such as 12 Cellisten of the Berlin Philharmonic, Vadim Repin, Jose Cura, Daniel Stabrawa, Solvguttene Chor from Oslo, Gildad Atzmon during prestigious festivals, including Luzern Festival, Piano Spheres in Los Angeles, events in Malmö, Brussels, Pasadena, and in such exotic places like India and Mexico.

Performing in almost every country in Europe, USA and Canada as soloist and leader of a jazz band called the String Connection he gave around 1000 radio and television concerts. In 1983 he won the First Prize of International Jazz Competition in Hoeillart (Belgium), and two years later he was listed as one of the best jazz violinists by Down Beat magazine.

In the early 1990s he started working as a composer and arranger. He composed over 120 symphonic and chamber pieces. He also writes film and theatre music. Krzesimir Dębski was awarded a Fryderyk award as the Composer of the Year by the Polish Phonographic Academy and a Philip Award by the International Film Academy for his soundtrack to With fire and sword. He also received an award for his music for In dessert and wilderness during the International Film Festival in Pyrgos (Greece) and a Golden Duck for his soundtrack for An old tale from the readers of Film magazine. Hollywood production company LimeLight Films was so impressed with Dębski’s work that they commissioned him to compose music to sixteen Charlie Chaplin films from 1914–1917. Polish TV series Magiczne drzewo with Krzesimir Dębski's soundtrack received the 2007 Emmy Award in the children’s TV series category.

Krzesimir Dębski has recorded over 30 CDs containing his compositions for numerous prestigious record companies. He conducted concerts with such international music stars as: Jose Carreras, Ewa Małas- Godlewska, Nigel Kennedy, Adam Makowicz, Canadian Brass, Vadim Riepin, Jean-Luc Ponty, Mark O'Connor, John Blake, Alberto Iglesias and Jose Cura. In October 2015 Sinfonia Varsovia recorded a selection of Dębski's pieces for a children's app, Orkiestrownik.pl.
