The 25-year-old Polish guitarist will hold his first concert in Vietnam on 30/11 at the Army Theater in Ho Chi Minh City as part of The Art of Guitar Tour. The announcement has generated significant interest among guitar enthusiasts and fans. Audiences can expect to witness Patrzałek's signature performances alongside his guitar, including new material created specifically for this tour.

Guitarist Marcin Patrzałek.

Born and raised in Poland, Patrzałek began playing guitar at a young age. He gained recognition after winning the Polish talent show Must Be The Music in 2015. In 2018, he took the top prize at Italy's Tu Si Que Vales. His appearance on season 14 of America's Got Talent amazed both the audience and judges with his virtuosity. His debut album, Dragon in Harmony, released in 9/2024, was well-received by the public.

Patrzałek's solo guitar performances are characterized by his innovative approach. Without any accompanying band or instruments, he transforms his guitar into a "miniature orchestra" using fingerstyle techniques. By both plucking the strings and percussively tapping the body of the guitar, he simultaneously creates bass lines, melodies, and rhythms, often giving the impression of a drummer on stage.

He has also garnered attention for his arrangements and performances of famous orchestral works by Beethoven, including Symphony No. 5 and Moonlight Sonata. In 2022, Guitar World magazine recognized him as "one of the most talented guitarists of the new generation." Celebrities such as Simon Cowell, Madonna, Will Smith, and Timbaland have also praised his talent.
