Kobialka holds a unique place in the world of music. Clearly a prodigy, an accomplished and creative performer, Kobialka’s interest in contemporary music was sparked while he was a boy. His father played violin with the Stradivarius String Quartet, and the household was filled with music, from Beethoven to Bartok and Shoenberg.

Kobialka was the founding concertmaster and soloist at the Greater Boston Youth Symphony Orchestra, where he played alongside John Adams, one of his high school friends who is now regarded as one of the foremost contemporary composers of our time.

Kobialka pioneered the development of the Zeta Polyphonic violin, a MIDI synthony instrument that can be played and heard in a very large space.

Kobialka is currently composing a trilogy with the famous composer-acoustician Loren Rush, and composer-pianist Jan Mattox, of the "Good Sounds Foundation." The trilogy is based on the theories of Pythagoras with tempered instruments and tuned pianos within his 5 and 7 systems of tuning.

Kobialka has commissioned over 30 works from such composers as Pulitzer Prize winners Charles Wuorinen, William Bolcom, and Wayne Peterson. Kobialka has premiered both solo works and concertos for violin, including Ben Weber’s Violin Concerto, dedicated to him, with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra under Robert Shaw.

As dedicated to collaboration as I am, in both music production and my online website activities, I’ve been blessed by the opportunity to add my music to the healing work of a group called Humanity Healing.

Kobialka is widely sought after internationally as a performer and lecturer, as well as composer. He has performed at major events in Europe, Taiwan and Japan where his recordings are best sellers. The Japanese government awarded him a Medium Term Grant to study traditional and contemporary music.

During this same period Kobialka performed a newly commissioned work of Benjamin Lees, Sonata No.2 for Violin and Piano, the world premiere at the International Cultural Center in Tokyo. He also gave a lecture recital at the Fukushima Music Arts Festival. One of his most recent appearances was documented on a commercial video released by Prem Promotion Ltd. of Tokyo, Japan.

Dr. Aiyoshi Kawahata, states, "The gentle, sweet melodies pulsing form your music relaxes my heart and fills my mind with happiness."

Kobialka’s music is the core of a series of studies linking sound with CAM, complimentary and alternative medicine for health and healing. At the center of Kobialka’s focus is the rejuvenative power of music. He has led didactic and interactive workshops and seminars, traveled the world bringing his violin virtuosity to hospitals from Beijing, China to Plainville Ohio, and recorded music for meditation and guidance with alternative healing pioneers including Joan Boreysenko and Bernie Siegel.

Kobialka has been Principal 2nd Violinist with the San Francisco Symphony for over two decades, occupying the Dinner and Swig Families Chair. In addition to his many performances worldwide, he is the founding concertmaster and annual soloist with San Francisco’s annual Midsummer Mozart Festival Orchestra under George Cleve.
