Piotr Kurek

Warsaw-based composer and musician Piotr Kurek blurs the line between experimental electronics, minimalism, and fractured song forms. Known for his distinct sense of pacing and texture, Kurek constructs emotionally charged soundscapes that feel uncanny and intimate. His compositions resonate with early computer music, jazz minimalism, chamber forms, and echoes of Renaissance counterpoint. Kurek is the author of several acclaimed solo works released on labels such as Unsound, Mondoj, Edições CN, and Hands in the Dark. Among his recent collaborations, he worked with American saxophonist Patrick Shiroishi on a joint album. He has also worked across disciplines – from dance and theatre to radio, art and film scores – and has performed at festivals and venues ranging from Berlin’s CTM Festival and Unsound Kraków, New York and Brussels, as well as intimate gallery spaces in Poland and across Europe.
