The love for music inherited it from the family; his father had played the violin. It was Camelia Dăscălescu who saw him. He listened to him once at "Mon Jardin" and did lessons with him. The first musical pieces performed by Dan Spătaru were by Camelia Dăscălescu. Once on a terrace he met Temistocle Popa, who made almost all the rattles.
