For six years, he was a member of the Colden String Quartet, ensemble- in-residence at Western Michigan University.
He appears frequently as a clinician for teachers and guest conductor for student ensembles throughout the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Mexico. He has produced over 120 arrangements, compositions, and pedagogical works for string and full orchestra that are played regularly in concerts throughout the world.
Now retired, Dr. Dabczynski and his wife Diane, a commercial vocalist, live in Saco, Maine, and spend their summers not far away in the village of Waterford.
