Artem Belogurov
Raised in Ukraine and based in the U.S., Artem Belogurov has emerged in the historical keyboard scene. He plays a large variety of instruments and has a repertory spanning four centuries.
Belogurov was born in Riga, Latvia, but grew up in Odessa, Ukraine. When he was 18, he moved to Boston to study at the New England Conservatory of Music, where his teachers were Gabriel Chodos, Patricia Zander, and Victor Rosenbaum. Becoming interested in historical keyboard instruments, Belogurov traveled to the Netherlands for studies at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam on clavichord and fortepiano with Richard Egarr and Menno van Delft, graduating with honors in 2016. He also plays the harpsichord and has mastered a wide variety of historical pianos from the 18th and 19th centuries. Belogurov won or took second place at various competitions, including the International Competition for Early Music in Yamanashi, Japan, the Geelvinck Fortepiano Concours in Amsterdam, and the Brothers Graun Award in Bad Liebenwerda, Germany. Those showings helped Belogurov launch an international career, but he has continued to be based in the Boston area.
In 2015, Belogurov made his recording debut on the Piano Classics label, releasing the album American Romantics: The Boston Scene, on which he played an 1873 Chickering piano. He has performed as a soloist or chamber music player at a variety of top venues, including Lincoln Center in New York, the Library of Congress in Washington, and the Universität der Kunste in Berlin, and has toured the U.S. with the early music group Concerto Köln. Belogurov also plays contemporary music and in 2009 gave the Boston premiere of Elliott Carter's Caténaires. Among his frequent chamber music collaborators is cellist Maya Fridman, with whom he recorded an arrangement of Prokofiev's opera Fiery Angel. Another musical partner is violinist (and fellow Odessa native) Aleksey Semenenko, with whom Belogurov released Crossroads, an album of American violin-and-piano sonatas, on the BIS label in 2021.
