Adam Makowicz grew up in a house where a piano was the centre of the home. His mother had long planned for him to become a classical virtuoso, but a meeting with a musician who introduced him to jazz changed this path completely.

It was here where his thorough classical education and incredible talent led him to create his unique virtuoso style.
