Vasily Petrenko was born in 1976 in the former Soviet Union and started his musical training from a very early age. He was a student at the Capella Boys Music School and the St. Petersburg Conservatoire and studied under Ravil Martynov. Petrenko was mentored by many well-known musical conductors, one of whom was Esa-Pekka Salonen, known for his work and achievements with the Los Angeles Philharmonic orchestra.
Starting in 1994, Petrenko has been the chief conductor of the State Academy of St. Petersburg and was also the resident conductor for the St. Petersburg Opera and Ballet Theatre from that time to 1997. In the early 2000s, he won the top prize in the Cadaqués Orchestra International Conducting Competition. He was also very successful at the Fourth Prokofiev Conducting Competition. And he was only getting started. Petrenko continued to gain recognition, and in 2006, became one of the youngest chief conductors of one of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic. The latter is one of England’s premier orchestras and Petrenko’s appointment as chief conductor increased audience attendance greatly. Within a few months of his hiring, his contract was extended twice. Petrenko has also made several recordings with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic. In 2009, his recording of Tchaikovsky’s Manfred Symphony was awarded the honor of the Gramophone orchestral recording of the year.
Among critics, Petrenko has received near-universal praise for his diversity, being an adept Brahms and Russian conductor. His broad repertoire also includes Macbeth, Boris Godunov and Le Villi, I due Foscari. Petrenko has received an honorary degree from Liverpool Hope University and the title of “Honourary Scouser” from the Lord Mayor of Liverpool. Being a relatively young conductor, Petrenko is known to infuse his performances with a remarkable balance of youthful energy and impeccable musical prowess. He is, therefore, popular with audiences as well and his shows attract huge crowds of classical music fans.
Petrenko has taken conducting duties with many prominent orchestras. Among these is the critically acclaimed Los Angeles Philharmonic. Founded in 1919 by arts hobbyist and part-time violinist Willian Andrews Clark Jr., the orchestra is one of America’s oldest. Under the leadership of Ernest Fleischmann, the orchestra revolutionized the act of live classical performance, with ideas that were copied by other orchestras all over the world. Over the course of its illustrious career, the Los Angeles Philharmonic has been conducted by many well-known names. Some of these include Otto Klemper, Alfred Wallenstein, André Previn and, most notably, Esa-Pekka Salonen, one of Vasily Petrenko’s mentors. During Salonen’s tenure as music director of the orchestra, the Los Angeles Philharmonic became known globally as progressive and contemporary-minded. Critics even hailed Salonen’s time with the orchestra as a “turning point” in the history of classical music in America. As a result, the Los Angeles Philharmonic is also one of the country’s best and most renowned orchestras.
