Teodor Pop

Teodor Pop is the leader of the "loud-jazz" trio JazzyBIT, from Timisoara, Romania. Teodor fell in love with the piano at the early age of 4 and studied classical music until 14 when he joined the jazz classes of “Francisc Hubic” Popular Art School from Oradea. In 2004 he won the "Best Pianist Award" at the “Iuliu Merca” memorial music competition in Cluj Napoca, Romania.

JazzyBIT is a trio consisting of Teodor Pop (piano, keys), Mihai Moldoveanu (bass) and Szabó Csongor-Zsolt (drums), which offers an energetic combination of jazz and rock, scattered here and there with blues, latin and funk. Having won the Newcomer Award by the “Muzza” Foundation Bucharest, they independently released their first album “Touch the Sky”, an album which reached number 9 in the Romanian music top “Muzici și Faze”. They have played over 100 concerts in Romania, but also in Hungary, Austria and Italy, where they were finalists in the European Jazz Award competition of the Tuscia in Jazz festival.
