Andrei Korobeinikov live in Paris

Experience Andrei Korobeinikov live on October 5th

Andrei Korobeinikov, a contemporary Russian composer known for his intensely expressive and often dramatic musical language, will present a concert at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris on October 5, 2026. His compositions frequently explore themes of psychological depth and utilize extended instrumental techniques, drawing influence from both spectral music and a distinctly Russian melodic sensibility. He often works with large orchestral forces and incorporates elements of theatricality into his concert works.

The Théâtre des Champs-Elysées holds a significant place in Parisian cultural history. Opened in 1913, it was conceived as a venue dedicated to modern art forms, representing a departure from the more traditional opera houses of the time. Its construction faced initial opposition due to its modernist architectural style – a notable example of Art Deco – but it quickly became central to artistic innovation. Early performances included landmark premieres by Igor Stravinsky ( *The Rite of Spring* famously debuted here) and other prominent composers of the early 20th century. Throughout its history, the theatre has hosted leading figures in opera, ballet, and classical music, maintaining its reputation as a prestigious and architecturally significant performance space.
