GéNIA

NEVER STOP EXPLORING

About Me


Described by The Times as "an outstanding musician", and by Gramophone as "a charismatic pianist," Russian virtuoso pianist and educator GéNIA has a highly eclectic repertoire, embracing classical music, contemporary works and multimedia projects.
Equally at ease on the stage of the concert hall or a nightclub, GéNIA has received critical acclaim for her live performances and contemporary classical releases for Black Box and Nonclassical. She strives to push the boundaries of the established piano tradition by exploring the nature of sound and potential of the grand piano.
She has commissioned over 20 new works, particularly developing the repertoire for piano and electronics, and collaborated with an eclectic range of artists.
GéNIA's latest CD has been released earlier this year and the vinyl release is coming out at the beginning of December, both on Nonclassical label featuring John Richard's "Suite" for piano and electronics alongside with re-mixes from The EarlyMan , Max de Wardener, kREEPA, Gabriel Prokofiev, Derailer, Trevor Goodchilde, Germ and Vex'd and is available on iTunes digital download
