Matylda Adamus

She is a cellist specialising in historically informed performance. She regularly collaborates with ensembles such as Le Concert des Nations (Jordi Savall), Arte dei Suonatori and the Orchestre des Champs-Élysées. She also appears as a soloist, one of her notable achievements being a performance of Beethoven’s Triple Concerto with the Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century in 2022. Chamber music holds a special place in her career: in various formations she has presented nineteenth-century repertoire at festivals including Laus Polyphoniae in Antwerp (2025), Misteria Paschalia (2023) and the Utrecht Early Music Festival (2022, 2023). Since 2024 she has taken part in the Intrada Scheme programme, which enables collaboration with leading European period-instrument orchestras such as Dunedin Consort and Concerto Copenhagen, among others.

She studied modern cello with Roberto Trainini at the Claudio Monteverdi Conservatory in Bolzano. She subsequently specialised in historical cello with Catherine Jones in Verona and completed her Master’s and postgraduate studies in early music under Lucia Swarts at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. She has participated in numerous recordings, broadcasts and festivals across Europe, collaborating with ensembles including Il Giardino Armonico, Holland Baroque and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment under the direction of distinguished conductors.

In 2025, together with harpsichordist Maciej Skrzeczkowski, she received the Da Vinci Publishing Award in the “Young Sounds” competition. As a result, her debut album devoted to eighteenth-century cello sonatas is scheduled for release in summer 2026.

In 2025, supported by a scholarship from the Polish Ministry of Culture, she realised a concert series presenting nineteenth-century Polish chamber music on period instruments.
