DNawrocki (spoken: dnavroːt͡ski), born in 1978 in the Saxon Halle, Germany, is part of a Polish family who left their town Międzychód (Wielkopolska) for economic reasons in 1920 and emigrated partially to the USA: He is a Choral Director of the International Choral Assosiation (ICA) who works for several choral societies in and around Frankfurt/Main. He studied in Frankfurt with the Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst and finished with the Diploma in Choral Conducting: Grade A. He worked with the Gächinger Kantorei and the Bachcollegium Stuttgart in 2010 in the course of Helmuth Rilling’s master class. Other master classes with Prof. Frieder Bernius, Prof. Maria Guinand and further trainings with Arvo Pärt, Gerd-Peter Münden (Childer’s Choir directing) and John Rutter etc. complete his education.

Deepening studies of the European cultures (especially their history, religions, traditions etc.), improving their languages and being major genealogist of his Polish "Nawrocki" family tree make him in these issues to a quite good reference person.
