He served on faculty as a violin teacher and concertmaster of the university’s symphony orchestra with which he went on tour through Henan province the Summer of 2009.

Education & Biography
M.A. in Piano and Music Composition(Tchaikovsky Moscow State Conservatory, Moscow)
B.A. in Piano(Gnessin State Music College, Moscow)
I am a Piano teacher with close to 30 years of experience working in Seattle and Los Angeles areas.
Music has been a huge and the most incredible part of my life since I was 5. My mother was my first teacher. Then life presented me great and fabulous mentors both in Piano and Composition. I studied with the head of Composition Department at Moscow Conservatory whose professor was Shostakovich whose professor was Rimskiy-Korsakov. This succession is wholeheartedly appreciated. I have an extended experience as a concert and studio pianist as well as a concertmaster and accompanist to violinists, cellists, flutists, trios, quartets, quintets, opera, singers, and dancers.
Benefits of Piano Learning
Develops Creativity
Improves Learning Ability, Memory, Concentration, Coordination
Builds up Focus, Perseverance, Diligence
Approach
My approach is truly individual and based on the specific needs of each student. The atmosphere in class is inviting, fun and encouraging to learn.
Piano learning would not be possible without some elementary knowledge of Music Theory, Music Notation and Sight-Reading techniques which I introduce genteelly and painlessly during the process. We also discuss the time in history in which particular music was written as well as the biography of the composer to better understand and appreciate the works and mind set of the master. These all greatly influences the choice a student makes in a music piece interpretation. It brings so much fun and joy to a lesson.
With very young children we climb the beautiful but at times challenging ladder of Piano Learning through songs, rhythmics, and dancing games.
Certification
Certification is available for those who are interested to go through the ABRSM program – Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music – the world’s leading provider of graded music exams and assessments. ABRSM has over 100 years of experience and expertise in the field of music education and benefits from the authority of four of the leading conservatoires including Royal Academy of Music in London.
