Andrei Korobeinikov took his first piano lessons at the age of five. Clearly in possession of a prodigious gift for music, in 2001 he entered the Tchaikovsky Moscow Conservatoire, studying in the class of Professor Andrei Diev. Upon graduation, he went on to obtain a post-graduate performance degree from the Royal College of Music, London.

Korobeinikov now follows a top-level career as a concert pianist, performing with many of the world’s leading orchestras. Recent and forthcoming concerto highlights include those with the BBC Symphony Orchestra, Budapest Festival Orchestra, Konzerthausorchester Berlin, Orchestra of the National Academy of Santa Cecilia, Munich Symphony Orchestra, NHK Symphony Orchestra Tokyo, St. Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra, Utah Symphony, Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra, Latvian National Symphony Orchestra, Tenerife Symphony Orchestra, Belgrade Symphony Orchestra, the Wiener Symphoniker, Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France and Orchestre de Paris.

Korobeinikov’s expansive mind and extraordinary musical gifts find a particular balance in recitals: he has become renowned for his fascinating programming skills, in which poetry and literature meet music in perfect harmony. In addition, Andreï Korobeinikov is a devoted chamber musician. His piano trio with Vadim Repin (violin) and Alexander Kniazev (cello) is widely celebrated, meeting with glowing critical acclaim. He is a close partner of violinists Vadim Gluzman and Tatiana Samouil, or cellists Pavel Gomiziakov and Johannes Moser.

Alongside his exceptional musical gifts, Korobeinikov possesses an extraordinary mental curiosity and intellectual appetite. Whilst enrolled at the Moscow Conservatoire, he also enlisted at the Moscow University (Law Department), obtaining his Bachelor’s Law Degree at just 17 years of age. In his spare time as a teenager, he went on to publish several academic legal works, including a much-celebrated text on Intellectual Property law, became a prolific composer of both music and poetry, and reached fluency in several languages (including Esperanto).
