You can get a musical education at the moment without much cost and effort. However, gaining audience recognition is a much more difficult task. Alexey Volodin is a Russian pianist who spends most of his time on tour.
Starting conditions
In order to achieve decent results in any kind of activity, it is necessary to live and develop in a kindred environment. This is a prerequisite for musicians and composers. Alexey Sergeevich Volodin was born on June 17, 1977 in an intelligent family. Parents lived in the city of Leningrad. Father played the violin in the orchestra of the Bolshoi Drama Theater. Mother worked as a solfeggio teacher at a music school. At that time, classical music was regularly sounded on radio and television.
A boy from an early age demonstrated musical abilities. Easy to remember melodies and lyrics. At the age of seven, Alexei went to a comprehensive school, and two years later he was enrolled in music. It is important to emphasize that the city on the Neva has long developed its own system of training musicians and vocalists. Volodin showed excellent results. The promising performer was transferred to Moscow, where he graduated from the Gnesins secondary music school. Then he received higher musical education at the Moscow Conservatory.
Professional activity
It is important to note that during his studies he took part in various competitions and festivals. The creativity of the young artist was noticed by recognized teachers in the world community. In 2001, Alexei Volodin was invited to the International Piano Academy, which is located in the Italian city of Como. Within the walls of this institution, many famous performers studied. You can improve the piano technique endlessly. Therefore, Volodin “diluted” the learning process by participating in combined concerts.
Being a trained performer, Volodin performed with dignity at the International Gesa Ande Piano Competition, which was held in Zurich. In the wake of this success, Alexey continued to reveal the facets of his talent, collecting full houses in the best concert halls in Europe and America. Albums with recordings of his performances diverged in huge print runs. Even in distant Australia they learned, fell in love and invited to perform a Russian pianist.
