NELU LAZAR
Time permitting, NELU LAZAR is a singer-songwriter, producer, co-founder of acoustic & rock bands, prosodic book writer.

In 2023, Nelu Lazar has been touring internationally in Romania, Republic of Moldova, United States, to launch his music album and poetry book "din vremuri de departe, din vremuri de demult" ("of times from afar, of times from ages"):
