Timeline

1915

Gică Petrescu (2 April 1915 – 18 June 2006) was a prolific Romanian folk music composer and performer.

Born in Bucharest, he made his debut at age 18 by joining a student band, having just graduated from the Gheorghe Șincai High School in his native city.

1937

His official debut was made by performing for radio audiences in 1937.

Between 1937 and 1939, he carried on singing with the Radu Ghindă and Dinu Șerbănescu orchestras at the Sinaia Casino in the Carpathian Mountains.

Some music critics have compared his talent and public appeal to the likes of Frank Sinatra or Maurice Chevalier.

His showmanship and charm were able to attract audiences of all ages, while his music influences combine folk with classical orchestra arrangements.

He holds the record for the number of most original (composed and performed) songs (over 1,500), in an amazingly varied discography, many of which became national hits and which were covered again and again by other Romanian artists.

Some of those hits are:

1968

In 1968, he was awarded the Order of Cultural Merit (Romania), second class.

2003

On 5 May 2003, then-President Ion Iliescu appointed Gică Petrescu as a Knight of the Order of the Star of Romania, as he celebrated his 88th birthday.

2006

On 18 June 2006, he was due to receive the national award "Premiile muzicale Radio România Actualități" (Musical Awards of Radio Romania News).

The award was canceled, as he had died that very morning.

He was 91 years old.

He was buried in Bucharest's Bellu Cemetery.
