ride a horse. The first one came true in 1997 as she began her musical education at the Stanisław Moniuszko

prof. Jadwiga Kaliszewska, after whose sudden death Aleksandra has finished BMus in Poznań under Jakub
Haufa. In October 2012 she began her MA studies at the Academy of Music in Cracow (in 2021 named the
Krzysztof Penderecki Academy of Music) in Rober Kabara’s violin class, where she obtained her degree in 2014.
