Dagmara Hobbs was born in Poznan, Poland. Following centuries of family tradition, she began playing the violin at three years old. Her father, Stanislaw Suchon, the concertmaster of Poznan Philharmonic Orchestra, was her first master.

Coming from a family of musicians with extensive musical traditions, Dagmara’s performances have ranged from ancient music ensembles, to classical symphony orchestras, to corporate shows with an electric violin. Since childhood, she has been seen performing as a soloist, in chamber and symphony orchestras with outstanding artists such as Joshua Bell, in Poland, Germany, France, Netherlands, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Spain, and Portugal.
