From Marcin's website:
www.marcinmasecki.com I was born in Warsaw in 1982. When I was six months old I moved with my parents to Popayan, Colombia. My father, a clarinetist, started teaching me simple harmony, rhythm and singing when I was three. At the age of seven I moved with my mother to San Fransisco where I began taking piano lessons. A year later I moved back to Poland and continued studies with my grandmother - one of the best piano teachers I know. Since I was seen improvising little melodies here and there I was also sent to my first jazz piano teacher, Jurek Kossacz.

The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra has earned an international reputation for excellence since 1902. This distinguished orchestra participates annually in the Nobel Prize ceremonies. Since 1926, the orchestra has been based in the Stockholm Concert Hall designed by Ivar Tengborn, who envisioned building a classical Greek temple set near the Polar Circle which would honor music. His vision has been fulfilled by this world-renowned ensemble.
