ĆWIŻEWICZ BROTHERS violin duo 

is a unique chamber ensemble of two  British-Polish violinists. They have been  performing together since 2014 but  their music-making began a decade  and half earlier when 13-year-old  Michał began teaching 2-year-old Filip.  

Their performances include their own  arrangements of classical and folk  music, as well as hidden gems from the  duo repertoire and new commissions  from contemporary composers.  

They have collaborated with the Harlem  Quartet, the Ognisko Ensemble and  have performed together as soloists  with the Górecki Chamber Orchestra.  

While they both separately studied with  celebrated violinists, their unusual mu sical upbringing also immersed them  in the rich folk music of the Carpathian  Mountains in Eastern Europe as well as  the very different sound-world of the  Javanese Gamelan, which they played  at London’s Southbank Centre through out their youth.  

Their varied musical interests have led  to two new duo works: Delirium by  Richard Birchall and Quartets for Two  Violins and Balinese Gender Wayang by  Nick Gray.  

Drawing on Polish Highlanders’ folk  tunes and Szymanowski’s ballet The  Brigands, their own piece Tatra Mel 

odies was premiered in Warsaw in  2015 together with dance and original  choreography.
