The Ukrainian pianist, Alena Cherny, found her own way to music. Her unique development in part has its origins in her extraordinary educational biography even this course has been relatively standard for the career of an international pianist. A passionate musician, she studied with professor Natalia Vitte at the Tchaikovsky Corservatoire in Kiev and then pursued solo studies with professor James Avery at the Staatliche Hochschule für Musik in Freiburg im Breisgau. After that she earned a diploma for chamber music and Lied accompaniment at the State Academy of Music at Trossingen under professor Michael Uhde. In Kiev Cherny also received valuable support and inspiration from the famous piano pedagogue and pianist Boris Archimovitch. She also participated in master-classes with András Schiff and in international piano competitions - she was a finalist in the Concours Clara Haskil at Vevey in 1991.
Extensive recital tours in the USA, in England, Israel, Germany, Italy, Austria and Japan made her name known in the leading music centres of the Western world.
Her interpretations are marked by narrative freedom, a close dialogue with the audience and the unconditional striving to rediscover the work of music time after time.
Alena's interpretations - especially of Erik Satie's piano music - are highly regarded, even by digital providers. Her version of the 1st Gnossienne has achieved almost 70 million streams on Spotify to date.
