“Konstantin’s charming personality, interesting anecdotes, and mastery of ivories hold the audience in a trance…”- Dan’s Papers

2019 Innovation Award Winner from the Music Academy Of The West, Konstantin has a singular artistic voice that communicates with and engages audiences worldwide. Konstantin’s creative output continuously innovates, frequently involving multidisciplinary projects with dance and film.

In 2020 Konstantin joined the adjunct faculty of his alma mater, The Juilliard School, where he received his BM, MM, and AD with Jerome Lowenthal. In 2022 Konstantin was named Director of Pedagogy and Narrative Musicianship at Bronx School For Music. This Season Konstantin’s performances include a return to NYC’s Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall with Pegasus: The Orchestra and Brooklyn Chamber Orchestra. Konstantin tours nationally, appearing at Conrad Theater in La Jolla, CA, and internationally at San Sebástian’s Victoria-Eugenia Theater and Centro Cívico Arrecife in Spain and the Canary Islands.

This season Konstantin is thrilled to premiere his original composition “The Pride Suite” for solo piano, commissioned by ProtoStar Group. It will be published by Spain’s OE Oficina in 2023 and recorded in 2024. In addition, this season, Konstantin collaborates on a performance art piece with SiteSpecific Dances and MorDance, premiering P. Nazaykinskaya’s “Emily”.

As a librettist, Konstantin works on two operas: “Tear Down This Wall” for Mississippi Opera and “Her New Home” for Garth Newel Music Center.

The Summer of 2023 will take Konstantin to five festivals: Odyssiad, CO, PianoFête, WA; International Composer Symposium in Del Mar, CA, and The Rising Stars Piano Camp in Lenox, MA. 2023 marks Konstantin’s 13th year as Artist-in-Residence at Pianofest In The Hamptons.
