Gold Medalist of the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, Vadym Kholodenko’s distinguished pianism and profound artistic gifts have led to invitations from many of the world’s finest orchestras and concert halls. In recital, Mr. Kholodenko appears on the world’s leading stages – from London, Paris, and Vienna, to Boston, Chicago, and New York – where he is praised for his “iron-clad technique, capable of moments of crystalline delicacy” (The Guardian). He is also a thoughtful and committed chamber musician, enjoying rewarding collaborations with an array of such artists as Clara Jumi-Kang, Anastasia Kobekina, Vadim Repin, and the Belcea and Jerusalem string quartets. He has held the position of Artist-in-Residence with the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra and the SWR Symphonieorchester (Stuttgart, Germany). He is the inaugural Artist-in-Residence at London’s Bechstein Hall – a state-of-the-art new chamber music venue (2024/2025).

Born in Kyiv, Ukraine, Vadym Kholodenko took his first piano lessons at the age of six and began touring internationally at thirteen. He was educated at the Kyiv Lysenko State Music Lyceum and the Moscow State Tchaikovsky Conservatory and won First Prize at the Sendai International Piano Competition (2010) and Schubert International Piano Competition (2011), before taking the Gold Medal at the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition (2013).
