The Artist

Slava Antipov started learning to play piano at the age of six with his mother, then won a few junior piano competitions and played with the school orchestra at the age of eight. When the family moved to London, Slava continued his music education at the Junior Department of the Royal College of Music and the Purcell School for Young Musicians before entering the Royal Academy of Music where he was awarded a scholarship and the Peter Clarke bursary. Slava completed his education at the Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance.

Currently, he is attending the Piano Masterclass course with acclaimed pianist Martino Tirimo at Morley College. Slava was selected to take part in the ‘Lang Lang Inspires’ massed piano day at the Royal Festival Hall and performed with the Folkestone & Hythe Orchestra (conductor Graham Harvey) after winning the Clovelly Recording Piano Competition. He was also a finalist in the Liszt Society International Piano Competition.
