He received formal double bass schooling with Professor Benda at the Prague Conservatory. After graduating from the conservatory in 1988, he joined the Prague Symphony Orchestra  FOK.

One of his recent top successes was a solo tour in prestigious German concert halls in Munich, Hamburg, Dortmund, Dusseldorf, etc. In fall 1998 he performed, together with famous bass-baritone Thomas Quasthoff, Mozart's demanding aria, "Per Questa Bella Mano" for Baritone and Double bass. Those concerts met with a great response not only from listeners but also from special magazines.

Schubert, and Piano Quintet in C Minor by H.
