Career

Romanovsky appeared at age 11 with the Moscow Virtuosi under Vladimir Spivakov. His piano teacher was Leonid Margarius, a pupil of Regina Horowitz, sister of pianist Vladimir Horowitz.[1] At the age of seventeen (2001) he won First Prize at the Ferruccio Busoni International Piano Competition. As his teacher Margarius moved to Italy to teach at the “Accademia pianistica di Imola”, Romanovsky moved to Italy to continue his studies with him.[2] Romanovsky graduated from the Academy in 2007 with a master's degree. He also studied under pianist Dimitri Alexeev at the Royal College of Music in London, England, graduating with an "Artist's Diploma" upon completing his studies there in 2008.[3]

He currently teaches at the Royal College of Music and at the Conservatorio di Reggio Emilia.[4] His future projects include recording the piano concertos of Alexander Glazunov with the Russian National Orchestra conducted by José Serebrier and the Diabelli Variations of Ludwig van Beethoven for Decca.[5]

Romanovsky has played throughout Europe, as well as in Japan, Hong Kong and the United States.[3]
