Misha
began studying piano at an early age in Nalchik (Russian Federation),
and his outstanding early promise blossomed into graduation with distinction
from the Gnessins Russian Academy of Music. He studied with Lina Bulatova,
herself a pupil of the revered professor Helen Gnessina and legendary
H. Neuhaus, and later became her assistant for two years.
In 1996 after a successful career in Russia, where he gave numerous
recitals all over the country, he decided to broaden his musical horizons
and moved to the West. He attended several masterclasses given by
L. Berman, K. H. Kämmerling, B. Rhingeissen and followed post-graduate
studies at the Hochschule für Musik in Weimar and the Sweelinck
Conservatorium, Amsterdam.
After winning major prizes at international piano competitions Misha
was invited to take part in important events such as ‘Chopin-Liszt’
Festival in Leipzig and perform with first-class orchestras. Misha
Fomin is now extensively in demand throughout Europe and is frequently
heard in TV and radio broadcasts. Recordings he made have received
critical acclaim in the leading classical piano magazines.
Most recent appearances include The Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and
The Musikverein in Wien.
Future engagements include Carnegie Hall in New York, The Forge (London)
and The Concertgebouw in Amsterdam.
Misha has always been renowned for his fine communicative skills in
front of an audience, allied to effortless technique and inspiring
musicianship in everything he performs. |
