Andrei Irimia is a Romanian pianist and composer on a mission to bring his cutting-edge contemporary sounds from Bucharest to the wider world. His third album is on the way, as well as a European tour – Light and Shadows – coming in September with stops in Berlin, Barcelona, and Paris. He chats to Headliner about the resistance he had to overcome with people on the more traditional side of the Romanian classical music scene, and his new singles, including the sprawling epic track, Obsidian.
