Vasile Iosif Herman
1929 - 2010
“For papa, the act of musical creation was a little bit of inspiration, an enormous amount of work, and exemplary discipline.
Aside from his teaching work as a professor doctor at the Music Conservatory in Cluj, and that of creation, there was also a passion for reading, art, and culture which also claimed a part of his time.
He was fluent in 6 languages: his native romanian, latin, german, french, russian, and hungarian. He was a true encyclopedia in humanist studies, especially history, which proved very useful for his children throughout their schooling before the internet age.”
– Mioara, his daughter
