Born in Moscow, Varvara studied at the Moscow Tchaikovsky Conservatory and later with Evgeni Koroliov in Hamburg. In 2006 she was awarded at the Leipzig Bach Competition and in 2012 she won the first Prize of the Concours Géza Anda in Zürich. She has performed with many of world’s most prestigious orchestras including Mariinsky Theatre, Wiener Kammerorchester, Tonhalle Zürich, SWR Sinfonieorchester or Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra playing under the baton of Eliahu Inbal, Valery Gergiev, Tamás Vásáry or Clemens Schuldt. As a recitalist, she has offered numerous concerts at Auditorio Madrid, Philharmonie Paris, Palau de la Música Barcelona, Mariinsky Theatre or Mozarteum Salzburg. Her enthusiasm about chamber music led her to the foundation of a stable duo together with the violinist Fumiaki Miura, as well as a piano trio with the cellist Jonathan Roozeman.
