Teachers - Sławomir Tokłowicz

Sławomir Tokłowicz

I have been involved with music from an early age. The first masters who introduced me to the world of music were prof. Stefan Stuligrosz, and my father Wojciech Tokłowicz. The fascination with drums appeared in the 7th grade of primary school and continues to this day.

In 1978 I started studying at the Music Secondary School in Poznań in the percussion class under the supervision of prof. Marian Rapczewski. After graduating from high school, I continued my studies at the Academy of Music in Poznań, under the supervision of the excellent teacher Jorges Valcarcel.

Over the years, my work has primarily involved being a session musician, which involves collaborating with many bands and, as a result, playing various types of music, from folk, rock, to jazz and improvised music.
I have collaborated or am collaborating with such bands and artists as: MBB, Lumen, New Day, Gospel Joy, Inicjatywa Muzyków Poznańskich Wielbijmy Go, Hallway, Ewa Nawrot, Orkiestra Zbigniew Górny, Sakala Brothers, Marcin Łosik Trio, JRM band, Jack & John Entertainment , Remigiusz Szuman, Robert Antkowiak Trio, Gosia Andrzejewicz, Projekt Sinatra, Kasia Stroińska – Sierant, Improsonus Qartet, Swing and Classic Quartet, Pinocio Brothers, Dorota Wróblewska Quintet, and my MRS Trio.

In 2021, I started cooperation with the Yamaha School, which also coincided with my desire to complete my education in Jazz and Stage Music at the Academy of Music in Poznań in the jazz drums class, which I graduated in 2023.
