Dragoș Ungureanu
Romanian saxophone player and composer with a classical background, studied at the “Spiru Haret” University – Faculty of Music-Bucharest, Romania. He is a creative, versatile and experimental artist that performs as a soloist, in symphonic orchestras and in chamber ensembles (Brasov, Sibiu, Ploiesti, Milano), and is particularly interested in performances combining different music influences, art forms and contemporary music. In addition to guest appearances and tours through Europe, Dragoș Ungureanu has also been involved in numerous record and television productions. The work for soprano Saxophone and Piano “Glaciers 1 and 2”, is based on the perpetual
slow movement of the massive glaciers. „Silence“ suggests inner stillness through reduced dynamics and a slow tempo, treating both saxophone and piano as autonomous.
