Come meet the ambassador of Polish jazz (Jazz Forum) and his super groovy, critically-acclaimed modern jazz collaborators. A leading Polish jazz pianist and composer, Artur Dutkiewicz is one of Poland's busiest jazz musicians, having performed in more than 50 countries and many Festivals around the world from the United States to Europe and now New Zealand!
Dutkiewicz was a finalist of the Thelonious Monk Competition in Washington, USA and the the first Polish musician to play a solo recital at MIDEM in Cannes. His last album Mazurkas (solo), Hendrix Piano, and Prana (trio) have been enthusiastically adopted by audience and critics.
A career highlight so far was a special piece he arranged and performed in with 30 international pianists at the World Culture Festival in 2011. The concert, heard by 35,000 people, was an expression of respect for the diversity of cultures, sending a message of peace to the world.
