Krzysztof Meisinger

Born in 1984, Krzysztof Meisinger is one of the most fascinating and charismatic classical guitar players of our time, his artistic development having benefited from the profound influence of such teachers and music authorities as Aniello Desiderio (Italy) and Christopher Parkening (USA). His talent compared to that of the pianist Piotr Anderszewski and fellow guitarist Pepe Romero, he has performed all over the world – from Tokyo to Los Angeles and Buenos Aires – in such halls as the Wiener Musikverein, Berliner Philharmonie, Wigmore Hall, London, Théâtre du Châtelet, Paris, Ryutopia Concert Hall, Niigata, Tokyo International Forum, National Philharmonic Concert Hall, Warsaw, Witold Lutoslawski Concert Studio of Polish Radio, Warsaw, Grand Theatre of Polish National Opera, Warsaw, Théâtre du Palais-Royal, Paris, Raitt Recital Hall, at Pepperdine University, Malibu (California), Großmünster, Zürich, and Hatch Recital Hall, at the Eastman School of Music, Rochester (New York). His débuts at the Berliner Philharmonie and Wiener Musikverein met with standing ovations. He has performed at festivals such as the Festival ‘Music in Old Krakow’, National Philharmonic Festival, Warsaw, Usedomer Musikfestival, Music Festival in Lancut, La Folle Journée de Varsovie, ‘Torun: Music and Architecture’ International Summer Festival, Festival of Polish Music, Krakow, and Festival of Music Competition Winners, Bydgoszcz. Since September 2017 he has been the founding artistic director of the annual Meisinger Music Festival, in Szczecin, which has attracted artists of the calibre of Ivo Pogorelich, Mariza, Piotr Anderszewski, Simone Kermes, Janoska Ensemble, Daniel Stabrawa, and L’Arpeggiata.

Krzysztof Meisinger has given concerts with such orchestras and ensembles as the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, PKF-Prague Philharmonia, Sinfonia Varsovia, Bilkent Symphony Orchestra, Ankara, Sinfonietta Cracovia, Philharmonia Quartett Berlin, Amadeus Chamber Orchestra, St Albans, National Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra, Warsaw, and NFM Leopoldinum Chamber Orchestra, Wroclaw, under Lukasz Borowicz, Agnieszka Duczmal, Michael Maciaszczyk, Wojciech Michniewski, Krzysztof Urbanski, and Michal Klauza, among others. He has collaborated with internationally acclaimed musicians such as Sumi Jo, Agnieszka Rehlis, Iwona Sobotka, Soyoung Yoon, and Juanjo Mosalini. His discography of a dozen albums has received many international awards and much critical acclaim. In May 2020 he signed an exclusive contract with Chandos Records, his début album on the new label, Elogio de la Guitarra, earning stunning reviews and named ‘Best of 2021’ by AllMusic. In May 2022, the British portal uDiscoverMusic declared him one of the twenty greatest classical guitarists of all time. Krzysztof Meisinger plays a copy of a guitar by Ignacio Fleta Pescador (1897 – 1977), built by Anders Sterner and equipped with Knobloch strings.
