Russian classical pianist Yulianna Avdeeva rose to international fame after winning the 2010 International Chopin Competition. Avdeeva has played at prestigious venues and collaborated with orchestras around the world, including performing with the Barcelona Symphony and touring across Japan with the Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century. She also has a wide recorded discography; her most recent album is Chopin Voyage, preceded by 2023’s Resilience, which features music by composers who endured political instability such as Szpilman and Prokofiev. Avdeeva also launched #YuliannasMusicalDialogues, an online initiative for her followers to share their passion for music. This is her debut recital for UGA Presents, which will feature an all-Chopin program that touches on a variety of genres and includes his rarely performed last prelude, Op. 45.
