Petru Teodorescu is a Romanian composer[1][2] born in 1983 and son of Romanian writer and journalist Cristian Teodorescu.
Biography[edit]
Petru began music at the age of 7, as a result of his mother wanting to avoid enrolling him in a local non-musical school known with students of notorious reputations.
He has been the musical adviser and vocal coach to the Romanian version of Your Face Sounds Familiar, has toured all over Europe, UK[3], and the USA[4][5] as a pianist, drummer, and singer, along with composing his own albums.
As an occasional falsetto singer he collaborated with the most famous instrumentists from Romania such as Ionica Minune, Damian Draghici, and Leonard Iordache.
As an international composer he collaborated as a member of the Hyperion Ensemble while on tour[6][7][8][9][10] with Tim Hodgkinson and Chris Cutler.
Influences[edit]
Teodorescu was influenced greatly by Karlheinz Stockhausen, Iancu Dumitrescu, Ana-Maria Avram, Vladimir Cosma, Octavian Nemescu, Horatiu Radulescu, and Dona Dumitru Siminica.
From 2003 while studying in parallel at the National Univerisity of Music Bucharest, Teodorescu commenced experimental music, phenomenology, spectral music and esthetics under the close mentorship of Iancu Dumitrescu and Ana-Maria Avram, Horatiu Radulescu, and Costin Cazaban.
