Vyacheslav (called Slava by his friends) thrilled the audience in his West Coast debut with the Steinway Society in 2016, receiving three encores, and was one of the featured artists in our 2021 Home Concert Hall series. He has performed to great acclaim throughout the U.S., Russia and Europe, including Carnegie Hall and the Berlin Philharmonie. Gryaznov studied at the Moscow State Conservatory for his undergraduate and postgraduate degrees and he earned the Yale School of Music’s Artist Diploma in 2018. He is on the teaching faculty of the Moscow Conservatory’s piano department. In 2014, Gryaznov signed with Schott Music, where his work is the publisher’s top ten best-selling piano editions.
