Born in Moscow and raised in Australia, Andrey is an exceptional guitarist.  His extensive solo repertoire includes important works from the late twentieth century, and he has given the world premieres of major compositions by Peter Sculthorpe and Brett Dean, and under the auspices of the Julian Bream Trust, both Leo Brouwer and Sir Harrison Birtwistle.

Andrey completed postgraduate studies at the Royal Academy of Music studying under Michael Lewin. During his studies he worked with guitarist Julian Bream to present an evening solo recital at St Johns Smith Square, and with guitarist John Williams on an evening concert of Australian chamber music with guitar in the Duke’s Hall. He was awarded an MA with distinction and Advanced Diploma, graduating with a Regency Award for notable achievement, the Academy’s David Russell Guitar Prize, and Recital Diploma. He gained his BMus degree with first class honours at the Australian National University in 2012 under Timothy Kain, in which year he became the only Australian to win first prize in the Adelaide International Guitar Competition, the first classical guitarist to receive the Australian National Fine Music ‘Young Performer of the Year’ Award, and the only classical guitarist to gain a Sydney Eisteddfod Instrumental Scholarship. After enrolling at the Academy in September 2013 he won first prize and the special Bach Prize in the 25th Gisborne International Music Competition open to all instrumentalists.
