Peter Adamkovič is a prominent figure on the Slovak jazz scene – as a pianist, educator, and organizer. His artistic work focuses on jazz, improvisation, and genre fusion, and he is active not only as a performer but also as the initiator of various music projects and ensembles.
He is a co-founder of the AMC Trio, through which he has collaborated with several internationally renowned musicians – including guitarists Ulf Wakenius, Philip Catherine, and Ruggero Robin, as well as American trumpeters Randy Brecker and Michael "Patches" Stewart.
As an educator, he has played a significant role in developing jazz education in eastern Slovakia. Together with colleagues, he established a jazz department at an art school, which became a hub for developing musical talent and trained a number of musicians who are now well established. The school eventually evolved into the Private Conservatory SZUŠ DAMA, while maintaining its focus on jazz education and its openness to young performers.
In addition to his teaching work, Adamkovič is also active in organizing cultural events, especially a jazz festival that provides a platform not only for established artists but also for promising students. For his contributions, he has received several awards, including a prestigious recognition for his efforts in promoting jazz in Slovakia.
