Virtuoso pianist, winner of numerous music competitions in Europe. My love for music began in my childhood and continues to this day. Graduated from the Tchaikovsky National Music Academy and have been performing as a soloist and in various ensembles for over 10 years. I have created a unique musical show called "GRAND ROCK PIANO SHOW," which is my own project and includes the most vibrant and memorable musical compositions in the genres of rock and classical music. The show has already captured the hearts of audiences at the largest venues in Ukraine and Europe. I also provide accompaniment services for weddings, birthdays, corporate events, and other significant occasions. I guarantee the creation of the perfect atmosphere that will meet your needs. I have the ability to sense the mood of the audience and create musical compositions that will meet your expectations. My music combines British elegance and the energy of rock. I always strive to create unforgettable experiences for my audience and to bring them joy and pleasure through my performances. If you want to create a unique atmosphere at your event and provide your guests with unforgettable impressions, I would be delighted to offer you my services.

Yaroslav was a fantastic choice for our summer garden wedding! He played a mix of classical and more up upbeat jazzy tunes for the different stages of the day - adding to and enhancing the mood and emotions of the ceremony and the drinks reception afterwards. He was very professional - punctual, very polite and smart, even playing on through a heavy downpour! Before hand he was quick to reply to messages, happy to make suggestions, and to include our ideas. I recommend him highly!

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

My clients highly appreciate my virtuosity and ability to create music in real time without memorized notes in advance. That is, each of my performances is unique and the second time will not be repeated in the same way.

In the past, I have performed at venues ranging from 10 people up to 3,000 thousand. These were halls with theatrical seating, as well as small venues.
