Raluca Sabau loves music for what it has to offer to people. Her playing has been described as very honest and transparent. In her concerts, she aims to give the audience an experience, a chance to feel whatever it is they are feeling in that moment, a chance to just be and observe, a chance to be moved, to be surprised, to be themselves. Raluca believes that a concert is as much about the listener as it is about the performer, as we are all influenced by the same music. Music is meant to flow between everyone engaged around it, and that is the only way it can come to life. 

Raluca Sabau was born in a small town surrounded by mountains, in the heart of Transylvania. In spite of the fact that she is the first musician in her family, she does give credit to her parents for starting up that fire by often playing classical music recordings at home. After never ending flirting with her red toy piano she got as a gift at the age of six, Raluca was enrolled at the local music school and started taking piano lessons. Years later she joined the Conservatory in Cluj-Napoca where she graduated her bachelor and master degrees. Her love of music was sadly not enough to make dreams happen in her home country, so in 2011 Raluca moved to the Netherlands, where she followed her second master study. In the Netherlands, Raluca has performed solo and with various ensembles on stages such as Musis Sacrum in Arnhem, Concertgebouw De Vereeniging in Nijmegen, or The Concertgebouw Amsterdam, as well as being featured on television, in the media, and live on Radio 4. Since the year 2016 Raluca has her own studio in Amsterdam, where she teaches piano lessons to people of all ages. Next to teaching, she is also active giving solo and chamber music performances.
