Aleksandra is a collaborative pianist, and répétiteur.

Her early education was marked by a particular affinity to music by Fryderyk Chopin and at the age of nine, she received a special prize from the National Fryderyk Chopin Society for her performance of one of the early Nocturnes. A few years later, she was already a prize-winner of national and international competitions, including the R. Schumann International Competition in Poland and F. Chopin International Competition in Hungary. Her achievements were then recognized by the Polish Ministry of Arts and Culture, which awarded her a scholarship for outstanding musical accomplishments.

Subsequently, Aleksandra was invited to perform in Hungary and France, as well as in prestigious venues in Poland, such as the Witold Lutoslawski Concert Studio of Polish Radio, where she performed the 4th Beethoven Piano Concerto.

In 2010, Aleksandra was admitted to study at the Royal Academy of Music, where she was awarded a generous entrance scholarship for the whole duration of her studies with Prof. Christopher Elton. While working for her Bachelor Degree, Aleksandra represented the Academy on many occasions, as well as worked independently and performed and collaborated internationally. As she continued to gain recognition as a chamber musician, she was also invited to perform solo recitals as well as concerti.

In 2014 she commenced her Master’s Degree in Performance and Research, studying now under the mentorship of Prof. Hamish Milne and again enjoying a generous scholarship.

Apart from pursuing her research interests, (the music of Karol Szymanowski) Aleksandra became involved in more extracurricular activities such as répétiteur work, orchestral conducting studies and organisational work. She curated a substantial part of the Royal Academy Piano Festival in 2016, in which she programmed her beloved Nikolai Medtner, Igor Stravinsky, and Dmitri Shostakovich, and, alongside her colleagues, performed some of the most challenging chamber works by these composers.

Having won two of the chamber music prizes at the Royal Academy, Aleksandra established herself as a sought-after chamber musician and now cooperates with both instrumentalists and singers. In 2019, alongside her duo partner Rosie Bowker, Aleksandra won a Tunnel Trust Award and in 2020 she accompanied the winning performance of Eleanor Corr at the Royal Over-Seas League Competition.

Aleksandra is a staff pianist at the Trinity Laban Conservatoire and Guildhall School as well as being a frequent guest at the Royal Academy of Music, where she works as an accompanist and a piano and ensemble tutor for the  Widening Participation Department. Her passion for making music available for all resulted in many years  of cooperation with Live Music Now, an organisation bringing concerts and workshops to venues and audiences that would normally not have access to it. She was a Santander Encuentro de Música, Leeds Lieder, and Solti Accademia Young Artist and is a Britten Pears Young Artist 2023-24. 2024 is a year of her Carnegie Hall debut as a participant of the Renée Fleming Song Studio.
