Katya Grineva, a Russian classical pianist now living in New York, is the only female solo pianist to have graced the world's premier concert venue - New York's Carnegie Hall Isaac Stern Auditorium - a grand total of 11 times.
She has acquired a reputation as a pianist of exceptional romantic and poetic expression, achieving her impact at the piano more through subtlety rather than by force. Above all, she values the beauty of tone and a more natural approach to the keyboard.

Adding to her romantic repertoire of Schubert, Liszt, Satie, Bloch, Chopin, Granados, Piazolla and Ravel, is music which she has performed exclusively so far: the rediscovered piano sonatas of Marcel Tyberg, a young Austrian composer who perished in World War II. The audience will hear for the very first time outside New York City, two compositions from Tyberg's piano sonatas.
