Yaroslav Likhachev

Born: 1991

Russian born (1991) and Cologne (Germany) based tenor saxophonist Yaroslav Likhachev took up a career as a jazz musician at the age of sixteen after many years of classical piano education.

The decision to follow the jazz path came after a live concert of the legendary American saxophonist Benny Golson, which unexpectedly took place in his hometown in the far Siberia. The concert was like a shock which pushed Yaroslav to jump into the jazz world with great enthusiasm and inspiration.

His former saxophone teacher at the College of Music in Novosibirsk encouraged him to take part in different International Competitions and Festivals and to continue his studies in Europe after the Diploma graduation.
