Polish guitarist Marcin Patrzalek seamlessly fuses fingerstyle, percussive techniques, and classical guitar — captivating millions on social media and earning worldwide recognition. The self-taught guitarist has won two major talent competitions in Europe and reached the semifinals of America’s Got Talent with his unique playing style. In his viral videos, Marcin delivers stunning renditions of famous pieces, from Beethoven’s 5th Symphony to pop hits like Ed Sheeran’s Shape of You. Marcin has toured globally, performing in Japan, the USA, South Africa, and Mexico, and has graced London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall.
In March 2022, Marcin made his UK debut, performing in four Classical Spectacular shows at the Royal Albert Hall. He played the Habanera from Bizet’s Carmen with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, as well as a solo guitar version of Bach’s Toccata from Toccata and Fugue in D Minor (BWV 565).
