Mischa Blanos is a Bucharest based composer and producer performing for Piano, Synths and Electronic Machines. With a classical academic background since the age of seven, Mischa Blanos has constantly pushed the boundaries between genres. He attunes between two music worlds, clubbing and concert halls and is set to instill his own view on the well sought-after alliance between classical, jazz and electronic music.
For the last two years it was quite a busy journey for Mischa Blanos with multiple releases and concerts throughout France, Germany, Austria, Romania and USA. In 2021 he released his solo album City Jungle and the EP Steppe on the French label Infiné and the Single Blue Wired Danube in collaboration with the clarinetist Khori Ander on Longcut Records. In 2022 he started with creative force, having released his first original soundtrack to The Bald Soprano, a new production of Eugene Ionesco’s classic absurdist play, directed by Alex Bogdan. Next release is the ambient album Ebb and Flow on the 7th of April at his Label Longcut Records.
THE PIANO & ELECTRONICS CONCERT
This is a one man electrifying show, as Mischa Blanos interplays moments of delicacy and sensitivity with the power of his piano virtuosity and the force coming from his electronic instruments, the polyrhythmic percussion and morphing synths. With a composer’s mind and a performer’s soul, he reveals a tremendous power that emanates in those artists acting in one-person performances.
