Viatcheslav Semionov was
born in 1946 in the ancient city of Trubchevsk, Bryansk (about 300km

After his father's initial tuition he continued his studies at the
Rostov Art College and the Gnessins' Musical Pedagogical Institute

At 21 years of age his international career began, when he started

Sofia, Bulgaria (1968) and Berlin, Germany (1973), in all of which
