Janusz Muniak - one of the most colorful figures of Polish jazz. Graduated from high school in Cracow, he made his musical debuted in 1960 with Lublin band of Witold Miszczak. The team has proven to be a good school of jazz playing, after which Muniak was spotted and asked to join Tomasz Stanko + Jazz Darings. Concerts of the band did not prevent Muniak from cooperation with Krzysztof Komeda, bands of Jana Ptaszyny Wroblewskiego (Studio Jazz LP, SPPT Chałturnik) and the quartet of Jan Jarczyk. <
