Marian Coman - Voice - Gold Medalist - Romania (Open Category)
I was born in the city of Galati from Romania on 24.04.1986 and since I was little I, liked to sing by imitating the sounds that I heard. In the last year of high-school I took part in the choir singing carols with my colleagues for our teachers for Christmas.
I stopped singing because I went to the Electrical Engineering Faculty from my town, afterwards I went to master’s degree in the same domain.
At the age of 25 I got employed at Renault Romania (Dacia Group) at Mioveni as an automation engineer, and after one year I left for France for 1 year, where I sang as an amateur, opera to the colleagues and friends. When I returned from France I bought an electrical piano Yamaha, and I started to study musical theory and I learned Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata in one year. This year 2023, I got the first prize in an Arts Competition in Cluj, Second prize at the Elite Musicians International Competition in Iasi (90p) and I am currently participating in 2 competition MEDICI International Music Competition and Appassionato in Bucharest.
