He was a participant of the Young Singers Project by the Salzburger Festspiele and the Opera Studio of the Opéra National de Lyon in 2014. In 2015/16 he was a member of the Opera Studio of the Deutsche Oper am Rhein and could be heard there as Moralès, Marullo or Silvano. In 2015 Roman made his debut in Prague National Theatre as Mozart’s Figaro and remained a regular guest there (Dandini, Mamma Agata, Don Giovanni, Harlekin).

Since 2016 he has been a permanent ensemble member at the National Theatre Brno where he appeared in many key baritone repertoire roles (Don Giovanni, Guglielmo, Rossini’s Figaro and Rimbaud, Belcore, Escamillo, Hamlet, Marcello, Count Danilo, Jaufré Rudel (Saariaho’s Amour de loin).
