Mr. Kouzov has performed worldwide with orchestras, in recitals, and in chamber music performances. He made his New York orchestral début at Alice Tully Hall in 2005 under the baton of Maestro Raymond Leppard, and has performed as soloist with such orchestras as the St. Petersburg Symphony Orchestra (Russia), the State Academic Symphony Orchestra of the St. Petersburg Philharmonic, the National Symphony of Ukraine, the South Bohemian Chamber Philharmonic (Czech Republic), and the Cape Town and Johannesburg Philharmonic orchestras (South Africa), to name a few. In addition to his performing activities, Mr. Kouzov is currently Associate Professor of Cello at the University of Illinois School of Music, and was previously on the faculty of Juilliard and the Oberlin Conservatory. Yulia KouzovaKnown for her passionate and musical interpretations and impressive technical facility, the St. Petersburg-born pianist Yulia Kouzova enjoys a varied international career as soloist, chamber musician, and teacher. Yulia has performed recitals and concerti in the major cities in Russia, and regularly performs in Russia’s most prestigious venues such as St. Petersburg Philharmonic Hall and State Capella. In addition to that, she has also performed throughout Europe in Holland, Portugal, France, Germany, Sweden, and the UK. Throughout her career, Yulia has received many awards, including a special prize at Jurmala International Piano Competition, Latvia and the Grand Prix and First Prize at the International Competition “Coast of Hope” in Bulgaria. In 2002, Yulia formed a piano duo Tatiana Brizhaneva. The duo appeared in numerous successful and critically acclaimed performances in St. Petersburg, Dusseldorf, and Munich, gave the Russian premiere of Germaine Tailleferre&#x27;s Jeux de plein air in 2008, and won 1st prize at the Maria Yudina Piano Duo Competition in St. Petersburg and 2nd prize at the Bahchiev National Piano Duo Competition in Vologda, Russia.
