# Event Details

- **Event Name**: POLINA OSETINSKAYA
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 16 Mar, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: …A rare musician to have made the transition from bona fide child prodigy to highly successful soloist, pianist Polina Osetinskaya inspires awe and admiration from fellow musicians, concert presenters and audiences around the world. She tours actively, giving concerts in venues such as the Vienna Konzerthaus, Berlin Philharmonic, Carnegie Hall, Toronto’s Koerner Hall, Barbican Centre, Sydney Opera House, and many others.

An accomplished recording artist with multiple Sony, Naxos, Evidence and Melodiya albums under her belt, Polina Osetinskaya has performed live with top level conductors such as Dennis Russell Davies, Teodor Currentzis, Yan Pascal Tortelier, and Andrey Boreiko. She enjoys an ongoing chamber music collaboration with Maxim Vengerov.

Profiled by the New York Times in 2023 for her immense courage in сondemning the war in Ukraine, this Russian superstar is now banned entirely from performing in her native country.

Born in 1975, Polina Osetinskaya was identified as a prodigy at the age of five and started giving public performances at six years old. She made her orchestral debut with the Lithuanian Chamber Orchestra two years later, playing the Bach D-minor concerto, and became a nationally celebrated phenomenon at the age of 11, when she played the Mozart A-major concerto No. 23 at the legendary Tchaikovsky Conservatory Hall.

In 2008, Polina Osetinskaya published an autobiography “Farewell, Sadness”, telling the shocking story of her superstar childhood, her early artistic journey, and the emotional and physical price she had to pay for her extraordinary success. Given the pianist’s star profile, the book became a literary blockbuster and was reprinted in 2023.

The current season takes Polina Osetinskaya to Paris, Bordeaux, Brussels, Vienna, London, Barcelona, Turin, Stockholm, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Singapore, San Francisco, Atlanta, St. Louis, Berkley and other cities around the world. For the first time she is coming to Finland - with one and only concert at the legendary Temppeliaukio church.
