Krzysztof Komeda (b. April 27, 1931 in Poznan – d. April 23, 1969 in Warsaw, Poland) was a Polish jazz musician and composer. His real name was Krzysztof Trzcinski but he changed his last name due to Communist disfavor with jazz music.
Komeda was trained as an ear, nose and throat specialist. In 1956 he made his musical debut at a small jazz festival in Sopot, Poland. He first recorded in 1960 with Adam Skorupka and Andrzej Zielinski. The following year he began his relationship with Roman Polanski by writing the music for "Knife In The Water." He scored several other films, including "Rosemary's Baby."
Komeda died in 1969 after a skiing accident in California while working with director Roman Polanski on his next film.
