Leonid Desyatnikov
Born in Kharkiv in 1955, he graduated from the Leningrad Conservatory in composition with Boris Arapov and orchestration with Boris Tishchenko. From 2009 to 2010 he was music director of the Bolshoi Theater.

Since the mid-1990s, he has actively collaborated with Gidon Kremer as a composer and arranger of works by Astor Piazzolla. He also maintains a close creative partnership with the choreographer Alexei Ratmansky, who has staged six ballets to Desyatnikov's music.

He has lived in Israel since 2022.
