Classically trained for 13 years with national and international very good competition results, festivals, countless recitals. Took up jazz a few years ago when busking with friends in the streets of my hometown (Cluj-Napoca, Romania) and attended some jazz masterclasses and workshops ever since. All I have ever done in jazz was pure improvisation.
I played alongside a few Romanian rappers doing live instrumentals for them and I got amazing feedback, crowd going crazy and sh*t, I’ve done a lot of jam sessions with all kinds of professional musicians. I also helped a lot of friends with band gigs in different genres though as it is super easy for me due to perfect pitch (thanks God) and advanced musicianship classical music gifted me with. I’ve just stopped my classical pianist carrer due to complex feelings and relationship with music in general. I just want more than just that. I moved to Guildford in September and I am currently enjoying a Creative Artist Degree at ACM. Looking forward to working with professional, creative and quality people.
