About Me
I am a professional concert pianist, accompanist, and composer with over 20 years of experience in performing and music education.

Whether you want to refine your classical repertoire through strict, traditional sheet-music study or explore a more flexible, creative path—such as playing by ear, improvisation, and accompaniment—I adapt every lesson directly to your personal goals and learning style.

Grounded in the Russian piano tradition, I hold a Specialist Diploma from the Ural Conservatory and have received advanced guidance from professors associated with the Moscow Conservatory and the Gnessin Academy.

My international background across Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Tajikistan, and the USA includes extensive work in professional orchestral and operatic settings, accompaniment, composition, and teaching students of all levels and interests.
