01 / About
A life conducted
through sound.
Igor Segeda is a Ukrainian composer, conductor, pianist and author based in Wuppertal, Germany. His work brings together classical form, cinematic scale, contemporary sound and the emotional immediacy of theatre.
From the orchestra pit to film and television, from the piano to the written page, every project begins with one conviction: music must tell the truth of a human story.
