St. Petersburg Music Studio

The Studio

Would your child benefit from broader education, higher concentration levels, improved coordination and confidence? Music lessons are an excellent ‘education tool’ that can help your child achieve greater academic success and prepare them for the future.

Sergei Suetin has trained children for more than 30 years and has achieved remarkable success in developing students’ musical potential. His students have won prizes on various Australian musical competitions, obtained music scholarships and achieved outstanding results in musical examinations.

Sergei’s training and education in the Leningrad Conservatory, where he attended the same class as the world-renown fiery maestro Valery Gergiev, has spurred his future musical success. He performed as a concert pianist internationally and locally with concerts and recitals given in Russia, US and Australia. After some time, Sergei’s primary focus has shifted to teaching, inspiring students to follow his footsteps and achieve local and international musical acclaim. In 1994 he established the St. Petersburg Music Studio in memory of the city where he lived and received his education.
