Vlad Romanovich Rotberg (born 8 November 1991) is a Russian pianist, composer, music educator and organiser of music-education projects. He founded Resonance Music School in Dubai and Moscow and co-founded the Moscow music school 12 Notes and the production centre Empire of Art. He lives and works in Dubai.
Early life and education
Rotberg was born in Moscow into a family of musicians. His father was a jazz saxophonist, while his mother, Natalia Ivanova, is a trumpeter, conductor and artistic director of a children's wind orchestra. He studied bass drum, recorder and violin before concentrating on the piano, and began performing and entering competitions at the age of eight.[1]
From 2007 to 2010 he studied at the Frédéric Chopin Moscow State College of Musical Performance in Alexei Nasedkin's class. From 2010 to 2013 he attended the Academic Music College of the Moscow Conservatory, and from 2013 to 2016 the Moscow State Tchaikovsky Conservatory. His principal-piano teachers included Alexei Nasedkin, Naum Shtarkman, Sergei Dorensky, Yuri Slesarev and Vladimir Krainev.[2]
He also graduated from the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation with a degree in Finance in 2025.[2]
Performance and composition
Rotberg has performed in halls of the Moscow Conservatory, the Moscow International House of Music, the Irkutsk Regional Philharmonic and venues in Dubai. He took part in the Crescendo and Stars on Baikal festivals, programmes devoted to Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes in Paris, the Children Against Terror festival and charity concerts at the Russian Culture forum in Germany.[2]
In October 2023 he presented Spooky Classics at the Theatre of Digital Art in Dubai.[3] In November 2024 he returned to the venue with NEOclassica: Resonance of Soul and Body, combining works by Robert Schumann, Franz Liszt, Ludovico Einaudi and Hans Zimmer.[4]
Rotberg describes his compositional method as improvisational. In 2026 he formed a cycle of twenty-two pieces entitled Nullo Modo. Its first composition, Liberatio ("Liberation"), was initially improvised during a solo concert at the Theatre of Digital Art.
Teaching and cultural projects
Rotberg began teaching as a teenager. In Moscow he worked as a teacher and accompanist at Children's Music School No. 98, as an accompanist at the Moscow State Academy of Choreography and in the vocal department of the Academic Music College at the Moscow Conservatory.
From 2013 to 2015 he was a co-founder and executive director of the production centre Empire of Art, which organised classical, educational and charity concerts. He later co-founded the Moscow music school 12 Notes.[5]
After moving to the United Arab Emirates, he founded Resonance Music School, which works with children and adults in Dubai and Moscow through Resonance Fine Arts Center LLC. Rotberg also created Genius Loci, a private chamber-evening format combining a meditative concert, lecture and dinner.[6]
Public activity in the UAE
On 2 October 2025 Rotberg took part in the round table Russian Education in the UAE: The Present Stage and the Future, organised by the Coordinating Council of Russian Compatriots' Organisations in the UAE with the support of Russian diplomatic missions. His contribution addressed the role of art in education, and he opened and closed the event with piano performances.[7][8]
In 2025 he served on the juries of PoetFest.Kids.Dubai and PoetFest.Dubai and appeared at the 17th Regional Conference of Russian Compatriots from Africa and the Middle East.
One of Rotberg's stated long-term goals is to establish an international-level conservatory in Dubai and develop the UAE as a centre for music education and the arts.[1]
Injuries and return to performance
In his youth Rotberg sustained a severe finger fracture that threatened his performing career. Following treatment and rehabilitation, he returned to the concert stage. UAE Stories also reported that he experienced clinical death; he has connected these events with his views on discipline and overcoming adversity.[1]
Awards
Published biographical and concert materials describe Rotberg as a laureate of more than thirty international competitions and festivals.[1] His archive contains more than five hundred diplomas, awards, letters of appreciation and other documents relating to solo performance, chamber ensemble, collaborative-piano work and teaching.[9]
Among the listed distinctions are two grants of the President of the Russian Federation under the Priority National Project “Education” and a diploma of the Commission of the Russian Federation for UNESCO “For High Performing Mastery”.
