In Switzerland, she made her orchestral debut at the KKL Lucerne, performing Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 23 with the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra under Michael Sanderling.
Daria is now actively performing across the United States. In 2026, she was selected as a Gilmore Festival Fellow, and in August she will perform at The Reach stage of the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., as part of the Washington Piano Festival, presenting the music of Scriabin. This U.S. chapter runs alongside a tour bringing Scriabin: Elements to audiences beyond Europe, as Daria continues to expand her programs to include the music of Bach and Medtner alongside her core Scriabin repertoire.
Daria Vasileva is a Russian concert pianist known as an ambassador of Alexander Scriabin's music. Her debut album, Scriabin: Elements, was released in 2026 on the French label Aparté, and praised by Gramophone as "an auspicious debut."
Daria received her classical training at the Kazan Conservatory, one of Russia's leading music institutions, where she developed as a concert performer, ensemble artist, accompanist, and teacher.
After graduating and winning several international competitions, including the Smetana International Piano Competition in the Czech Republic, she was awarded an ESKAS grant from the Swiss government to study at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts.
Under the mentorship of Professor Benjamin Moser, her fascination with Scriabin's music deepened into the defining thread of her artistic identity. In 2023, she won Second Prize and the Malaga Symphony Orchestra Prize at the Campillos Piano Competition in Spain, and in 2024, Second Prize (ex aequo) and the Special Scriabin Prize at the XXVI International Scriabin Competition in Grosseto, Italy.
