Sévan Kalinine

Sévan Kalinine is a classical pianist who distinguishes himself on the international stage through his great musical sensitivity and constant joyful energy. Winner of numerous prestigious competitions, he regularly performs as a soloist and chamber musician, collaborating with renowned artists across Europe.

After training at the Pôle supérieur d'enseignement artistique in Paris, he is currently continuing his advanced studies at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Hamburg in the class of pianist Aleksandar Madžar. Alongside his classical path, he has also studied jazz, accordion, and the performing arts. This diversity, combined with his inexhaustible curiosity, regularly leads him to explore new artistic avenues beyond the strictly classical framework. This openness is particularly evident in his participation in television projects, theater plays, and video creations on the internet...

A passionate pedagogue for over a decade, Sévan Kalinine devotes a significant part of his career to transmitting his art. His pedagogical commitment is also evident each summer during festivals, where he voluntarily organizes introductory workshops to classical music for children through musical tales and instrument presentations. Through this approach, he pursues his mission of awakening the interest of new generations in classical music, which he considers a privileged means of expression where words are no longer sufficient.

For Sévan Kalinine, interpretation and teaching are two inseparable dimensions that mutually enrich each other: his musical research nourishes his pedagogy, while his teaching approach inspires his playing. It is in the constant exploration of these two worlds that he finds the very essence of his vocation, thus giving meaning to his life as an artist.
