Tomasz Bura Group feat. Rouhangeze
Tomasz Bura - Keyboards
Rouhangeze - Vocals
Laurence Cottle - Bass

An impassioned, heartfelt ensemble with dynamic extremes fusing jazz, cinematic, rock music, with composition. Compelling in its navigation through electronics and the acoustic. 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.
