Leyah - aka Magdalena Diana Marica - is the first Romanian artist and composer to bring the Cinematic Pop style to the Romanian music scene through her compositions.

 

Educated in classical music, Leyah began studying the piano at the age of 5.

Her father, Modest Cichirdan, a classical music conductor, had a defining impact on her professional development.

 

After graduating from high school in music, Leyah made a crossover into pop music and began composing her own music.

 

In 2021, Leyah begins to explore the world of cinematic music, composing the soundtrack of the short film " Anonymously ", as well as the songs "I don't deserve this" and "I'll be fine".

 

The "Cinestezia" National Concert and Tour places her in a new musical style for Romania, the Cinematic Pop style. It is characterized by the fusion of two musical worlds, at opposite but charming poles, which marked its existence: classical music and pop music . Sounding like a film score with vocals, the musical product proposes to bring back the elements of classical music to the general public "but with a twist", integrated into pop music.

 

His compositions "Time" (a powerful introspective ballad, filmed in NY), "Peace is the only thing we need" (composed under the influence of the accounts of the Russian-Ukrainian war and released on the anniversary of the armed events) or "Save Me" , bring to the public music and storytelling in an elegant, deep, impactful air.
