Accompanists
Known for his ability to compose and improvise pieces, you’ll often find Rafael at the piano or violin making music out of thin air. He has used these talents locally to create works for the George Mason University Dance Department, accompany the Washington School of Ballet, and teach master classes at John Hopkins University Peabody Conservatory of Music. He’s an expert pedagogue for both violin and piano, he has taught students from beginner to virtuoso.
Internationally he was the Music Director of Violino, the Dnepropetrovsk Symphony Youth Violin Ensemble. Violino was selected to perform all over Europe and the US in concert halls and for dignitaries. As an instrumentalist, Rafael Javadov has performed all over the world, including more locally at the Kennedy Center, Strathmore Hall, Meyerhoff Symphony Hall, the US Senate, the Cherry Blossom Festival, and at presidential inaugural events. Additionally, he has performed at Rockefeller Center in NYC and as part of Josh Groban’s US Tour.
When not teaching you can find Rafael playing with his sweet dog Lexy.
