He has composed music for theater and television productions, created television biographies of prominent composers, and directed documentary films, including Following Chopin's Footsteps – Czech Republic, Chopin Means Poland, and Chopin's Heart.

He has organized international music events, including the commemoration of the 150th anniversary of F. Chopin's death in Vienna (1999) and the exhibition Chopin in Vienna (2010).
