We are Mădălina Pavăl Orchestra. We play Romanian music inspired by tradition through world music. Our world’s music.
We skilfully orchestrate two worlds: one classical and one alternative.Together with Alexei Țurcan—producer and composer—we laid the foundation for a performance ensemble called Mădălina Pavăl Orchestra. Some might call it world music, but for us, it's more than just a genre. With lyrics that carry a sweet, familiar taste and rhythms that whirl like wild dances, our music pours from our souls, weaving narratives drawn from our Romanian roots and the places that shaped us—Bucovina, Moldavia, the lands south of the Danube, and the Balkans. More than just sound, our music is passion, atmosphere, a way of being.
Our music
Orchestra
As a close-knit group of musicians with varied musical roots, we bring together the distinct sounds of strings, percussion, and vocals to create a unique blend that combines the richness of folklore with contemporary influences. Each of us contributes our own story and style, shaping the vibrant music that defines Madalina Paval Orchestra.

We skilfully orchestrate two worlds: one classical and one alternative. We call it world music or ‘muzică lumească’.
Together with Alexei Țurcan—producer and composer—we laid the foundation for a performance ensemble called Mădălina Pavăl Orchestra. We are more than just a classical orchestra. We’ve reinvented Romanian sounds, blending textures from the classical world (a string quintet, harp, flute) with the dance dynamics and tribal force of an alternative band. Some may call it world music; for us, it’s an ensemble that wails like a Romanian doină and spins you around wildly. World music from a symphony of places: Bucovina, Moldova, the Danube's southern shores, and the Balkans.
