Mario Grigorov is a Bulgarian composer for film and television and a concert pianist. He performs on the piano and improvises in the styles of jazz, classical and world music. Mario Grigorov's father was a concert trumpeter, and his mother was a concert pianist. In 1968, the Sofia Conservatorium suspended its age requirement of seven years of age to allow a 5-year-old Grigorov to begin his classical studies. In 1969, Mario's father took the opportunity to play in the Shah's handpicked orchestra, and the family relocated for 6 years. Mario's tutelage in classical piano continued, and he was exposed to the sounds of the new culture he found himself surrounded by. In 1976, again for Mr. Grigorov's symphony career, the family relocated to East Germany. While finishing out the 1970s with a classical regimen, Grigorov and his family moved to Vienna, where Mario studied under renowned 20th-century composer Thomas Christian David at the Vienna Conservatorium. In the early 1980s, Mario moved to Sydney, Australia, where he took electronic music and Jazz studies classes with Don Burrows. He worked with many Australian rock groups.
