Toronto-based contemporary classical pianist and composer Teo Milea brings new music to Gallery 345 on November 3rd, 2018.

“Teo Milea`s compositions have something special: they leave you the impression that they embody taking majestic forms, they become statues, structures, buildings…” (M. Obradov, Journalist)

Currently working on new solo piano music for his upcoming album “I am Human”, Teo Milea has been living in Toronto for the last three years. When asked about how Canada has been influencing his compositional style, the artist said: “I needed some time to connect to this new space, to everything that surrounds me here in Toronto, and I am sure my music reflects both the struggle of finding my new voice and the contentment ofdiscovering the new pattern in my musical style. While my first album “On white…and black keys” (2012) was more close to the world of classical music, I feel “Open Minds” (2015), my second album, paved the way to a more modern style; and the new works are definitely going towards the minimal genre. On November 3rd, besides well-known pieces like “1stSun”, “Agony and Ecstasy”, “Journey”, “Irreversible” and a few others, I am excited to be able to play some of the new compositions for my friends at Gallery 345 – one of my favorite venues here in Toronto.”
