Ștefan Iordachi was born in 2009 and began studying the cello under the guidance of Professor Ani Marie Paladi at the "Iosif Sava" Secondary School of Arts in Bucharest. He is currently a student at the George Enescu National Music College in Bucharest, under the same guidance. He has participated in recitals organised in Romania and abroad (Prague, Siena, Berlin, Zagreb) and has played at the Berlin Philharmonic with David Geringas' Chamber Orchestra, under the baton of the maestro.

Alongside his established cello repertoire, Ștefan Iordachi approaches chamber music with the same passion.

Beyond his passion for the cello, Ștefan is open to other forms of knowledge, finding inspiration in both the visual arts and the technical and scientific fields. He is attracted to drawing, especially the graphic style, where he combines precision and imagination. He is also passionate about aeromodelling and car modelling, building dynamic models, fields that stimulate his creativity and curiosity.
