About Me

Dorian Griner MMus GSMD London CityUniv, ISM member, experienced his first infatuation with music at the age of 7. He began his studies under the supervision of his Czech mother Bozena Griner, herself an accomplished pianist and professor of piano in "Mokraniatz" music school in Belgrade, a graduate from Moscow Conservatoire, having studied piano with the famous Heinrich Neuhaus (Richter and Gilels were among his pupils). From his mother Dorian inherited his passion for piano, which later was developed into an individualistic, poetic approach, which distinctively favours repertoire from Romantic periods. ..."Dorian Griner is a very talented, intuitive young pianist with individual personality..." - ARTUR PIZZARO Photos (C) 2007 Maja Castle, Dana Belmont
