Dan-Alexandru Voiculescu

Dan Voiculescu (b. 20 July 1940 in Saschiz, d. 29 August 2009, in Bucharest) was a Romanian composer, doctor of musicology (1983), professor of counterpoint and composition at the Music Academy in Cluj-Napoca(since 1963) and the National Music University of Bucharest (since 2000), and member of the Union of Romanian Composers and Musicologists (since 1965).

His musicological studies fill a niche in the Romanian bibliography; they are significant contributions towards understanding the polyphony of 20th-century classical music. His compositions are performed frequently, both in Romania and abroad.
