Ms. Szlubowska describes MSE: "Marta Szlubowska Ensemble has been a dream come true for me. I am very thankful to my parents, Danuta and Janusz Szlubowski for helping me realize this dream. We choose favorite pieces and melodies from around the world as well as beloved classical selections, which I know the audiences will enjoy. With MSE I am able to direct the performances and be the soloist. We perform without a conductor, which puts more demand on all of the musicians. It helps us be better leaders and be more involved in listening and watching each other in order to create a perfect blend of ensemble and expression. We hope you will come to hear us play again and again! We are here to entertain you and make you happy with our music!".
