Piotr Maziarz

Piotr Maziarz studied the organ at the Krzysztof Penderecki Academy of Music in Krakow under Prof. Mirosław Semeniuk-Podraza. During his studies, he participated in numerous organ competitions taking First Prizes in international organ competitions in Russia (“Vox Polonica Petropolitana” 2019) and in Italy (“Don Vincenzo Vitti” 2021).
In 2021, he began his organ studies in Italy under Prof. Juan Paradell-Sole and Prof. Antonella Tigretti in Frosinone. During his time there he began researching the work of Marco Enrico Bossi, following in his footsteps by playing the instruments the composer performed on and analysing manuscripts. At the end of his Master’s studies in Kraków, he wrote a thesis entitled “Marco Enrico Bossi – in search of romantic patterns”, touching in depth on the problems of registering and interpreting his works.
In 2022, he secured an Erasmus+ internship at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire to study the works of Byrd, Purcell, Elgar and Howells.
In 2023, he received a scholarship from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire and The Nicolas Danby Trust and began his MMus studies at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire under Daniel Moult and Nicholas Wearne.
Piotr has been invited to the most important organ festivals in Poland. He has given concerts in Slovakia, Hungary, Italy, Russia and the United Kingdom.
