JAZZ SINGER/SONG WRITER/EDUCATOR
 

Sofya Chekster began her musical path when she was 5. She started in Taganrog, her home town.

​

She studied classical piano, but singing had always been her true love. Also she enjoyed composing different funny songs.

​

Even then her potential was already noticeable.

After school she studied in Rostov College of Arts, then in Rostov State Rakhmaninov Conservatory.

 

And then after 3 years she entered the Dr. Langner Jazz Master Programm in HfMT Hamburg. JD Walter became her mentor there.

​

The atmosphere of creativity in the University charged her up and so she started writing songs.

 

And in a year she released her first album "Dream come true", which was recorded with musicians from Rostov.

​

And in just another year now with the musicians from Moscow she released the second EP album "The land across the sea". Alina Engibaryan arranged this album.
