Mariusz Adamiak announcing his concert in 2004

Mariusz Adamiak (born 1961 in Warsaw) is a Polish promoter of jazz music. Curriculum vitae

Graduate of the University of Warsaw (Faculty of Geography). He began his career as an animator, promoter and promoter of jazz music in Poland in 1988, taking over the management of the Jazz Club of the Aquarium in Warsaw. Under the direction of Adamiak, this place quickly became one of the most famous jazz clubs in the world. In 1991, he founded the Aquarium Agency, which was still under his management, which organized over one hundred major cultural events.

Perhaps the breakthrough moment in Adamiak's career was the creation of a new jazz festival - Warsaw Summer Jazz Days in 1992.

In the years 1993-1996 Adamiak published a jazz magazine "Jazz a Go Go", the first jazz magazine on the Polish market, appearing with a compact disc. In 1994 he founded Radio Jazz, and a year later - KOSMOS - a satellite music program for 32 local radio stations. He still manages the Aquarium Agency, and in the summer of 2007 he briefly reactivated the Jazz Club Aquarium. Featured as the "Culture Wizard" in the 2002 Passports.

Disagreeable with all manifestations of nepotism, protectionism and paternalism (at the first concert in the Aquarium under his direction, played by Tony Williams, all of them including the journalists had to buy tickets), Adamiak distanced himself from his predecessors associated with the Polish Jazz Association . Consistently promotes American jazz and its image (hats, perhaps patterned on Bootsy Collins hats).

Mariusz Adamiak lives with his wife, Beata, near Warsaw.
