One of our team members recently saw Yaroslav performing at The Meadows and was absolutely blown away! This exceptionally talented young pianist, composer and improviser is a must-see this season.
A graduate of the Tchaikovsky National Music Academy in Kyiv, he is a prize-winner of international competitions held in Germany, Italy, Spain, France, and the Czech Republic. As a performer, he is known for his virtuosity. As a composer, for his distinctive style and cinematic sensitivity.
He is the creator of large-scale projects, including the Grand Rock Piano Show, where he brought over 70 musicians together on a single stage, shaping the concept, music, and direction. His works have also been featured in film productions.
Since 2023, he has been based in the United Kingdom, where he has performed solo concerts in London and across the country. He holds a Global Talent Visa, endorsed by Arts Council England. His discography includes two solo albums and over a dozen singles. Alongside his solo work, Yaroslav collaborates with fellow artists, composing original music for stage and visual projects. Each of his live performances blends structured composition with improvisation, making every concert a one-of-a-kind experience.
We would like to thank Stamford Diversity Group and Stamford Living for donating towards this performance.
