Yulia Vershinina-Mukhopadhyay

Yulia Vershinina-Mukhopadhyay was born in Russia, raised in Belgium and trained as a musician in the United Kingdom. A child of multiculturalism, Yulia draws her musical inspiration from different pianistic schools.

From her earliest concerts at the Royal Brussels Conservatoire to her Carnegie Hall debut, Yulia always yearned to be on stage: immersing herself in the sounds of the instrument and having the chance to communicate with people through music.

Yulia has been fortunate to collaborate with outstanding musicians. She has performed Brahms’ Horn Trio alongside

Peter Cropper, participated in eye-opening residential courses with her former ensemble Trio Mise-en-Scène and is now expanding her horizons discovering new repertoire through her partnership with Chiahu Lee.

A believer in the transcendental power of music and its ability to help us feel more empathy and embrace our shared humanity, Yulia feels that in our increasingly polarised world, music is the key to a kinder and fairer society.
