Katya Grineva

Concert pianist. Twenty seasons on the stage of Carnegie Hall, and a reputation built on the beauty of a single held tone.

Moscow to Carnegie Hall

She reaches an audience through subtlety, never force.

Katya Grineva has performed more times than any other solo female pianist in the history of Carnegie Hall, concertizing across the United States, Europe, South America, Asia and Africa.

Born in Moscow, she began at six and studied under Professor Pavel Messner at the Moscow High School of Music before a scholarship brought her to the Mannes School of Music in New York. She has been a Steinway Artist since 1998.
