Tomasz Bura, a pianist, composer, and music producer, is distinguished by his unique fusion of classical intensity and improvisational originality. Tomasz's musical journey began in Poland, where he honed his skills in classical piano under the guidance of masters. However, his true passion for improvisation emerged at a young age, when Tomasz turned his mistakes into original compositions and improvisations, a passion that continued to develop during late-night jam sessions in jazz clubs. His band, **Tomasz Bura Group**, was often invited to perform at Ronnie Scott's in London and at festivals across the UK. Since moving from Poland to London in 2011, Tomasz has performed at prestigious festivals such as the London Jazz Festival, Jazz à Vienne, and many others, and has toured extensively across Europe, Asia, and Africa. His performances on platforms such as BBC1, JAZZ FM, MTV, and TSF JAZZ have solidified his reputation as an innovative force in contemporary improvised music.

Collaborations with a diverse range of musicians like Harvey Mason, Wretch 32, Guthrie Govan, and members of bands like Massive Attack, Incognito, Jamiroquai, Level 42, and many others, have given Tomasz experience in various musical styles and versatility, allowing him to move freely between different musical genres. He is also known for his bold approach to improvisation and challenging traditional piano conventions.

When not performing with the Tomasz Bura Group, he divides his creative interests between composing contemporary piano and orchestral pieces for CRD Records in the UK and creating cinematic soundscapes for Los Angeles-based Position Music.

On stage, Tomasz’s intensity shines through his spontaneous improvisations, often using innovative tools like the **Expressive E Osmose synthesizer** to deconstruct and revolutionize piano traditions. His performances, whether solo piano suites or immersive soundscapes, consistently attract new followers worldwide, showcasing his passion for bold inventions and sonic exploration.
