In the Czech Republic and even abroad, Peter is widely known as Danny Smiřický of the TV series The Swell Season by Josef Skvorecky.
For over 4 years, Kroutil has starred in the original Prague Syncopated Orchestra alongside the renowned Ondrej Havelka.
He later co-founded the big band Prague Swing Orchestra, where he worked and performed for seven years as a soloist.
Peter is also the only Czech musician who played at the London 2012 Olympic opening ceremony.
In 2011 Peter founded his pop jazz quintet Petr Kroutil Orchestra and in 2016 started ambitious big band playing in style of 20´s. He works in this big band as a bandleader, soloist, singer and arranger.
