Anatoli Torjinski - Cellist/Composer

I grew up in Odessa (Ukraine). Completed Stolyarski Selective Music School, majoring in violoncello, along with piano and guitar. Graduated from the Odessa Conservatorium of Music as an orchestra performer, soloist and music teacher. Settling in Sydney, Australia, I have been playing with the Sydney East-West and Willoughby Symphony Orchestra and teaching at the Australian Institute of Music, as well as completing a post-graduate performance course at Sydney Conservatorium of Music. In 2000 I began to play in experimental acoustic duo “Double T” with talented guitarist Yuri Terletski (now member of russian pop group “Umathurman”). Our first CD Album “Beyond the Circle” 2001 (Anatoli Torjinski – Cello, Yuri Terletski - Guitar) was nominated as the Best Record of 2001 in the Aussie–Based World Music category. Aria Award winner with Monsieur Camembert Band for Best World Music Album. Regular performances for Musica Viva & Carnivale in different Sydney & NSW venues and festivals.. ..
