Wytold

Wytold plays an electric cello with two extra strings that capture the depth and power of a stand-up bass, the rich tonal timbre of the acoustic cello, and the bright crispness of violin solos and harmonies. He has performed his live-looping blend of classical inspiration, contemporary rhythms and jazz improvisation as a frequent collaborator with GRAMMY-nominated progressive hip-hop artist Christylez Bacon, with the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center, on stage with nationally touring contemporary dance company Christopher K. Morgan & Artists, as a featured presenter at TEDx Foggy Bottom, and in the score of the Sundance award-winning film Blood Brother. In addition, Wytold regularly performs at Walter Reed Military Hospital and Fort Belvoir, co-leading workshops that help Veterans and their families heal through creating art in the hospital and at USOs.
