A pianist who travels with the music.

Maxma is a sociable, nomadic pianist who began playing piano at the age of four, instinctively, after hearing the opening of an anime series on TV. He is the only musician in his family.

He completed both his bachelor's and master's degrees in Plovdiv, graduating with perfect scores in music and piano teaching, with an ongoing PhD in Music Perspective. Although trained as a classical pianist, his compositions often evoke soundtracks, with touches of jazz and a strong sense of freedom. He has backpacked through more than 50 countries, and his goal is to keep traveling with awareness, using music as his compass.

To show to individuals that the art of music can be a companion in life rather than a skill or talent. Through experiencing music you can be aware of your emotions, regardless of the intention of the composer.
