In chamber music, Artem Yasynskyy collaborates with ensembles and artists such as the Lyatoshynsky Trio, cellist Maddalena Del Gobbo, violinist Stefan Latzko, violinist Professor Katrin Scholz, cellist Professor Gabriel Schwabe, and the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen.

​

He has given solo recitals at venues including Carnegie Hall in New York and has performed in Germany at locations such as the Sendesaal Bremen, the Konzerthaus Berlin, the Berlin Philharmonie, the Bremen Theater, and the Hamburg Laeiszhalle.

He completed his piano studies with distinction at the Prokofiev State Music Academy in Donetsk under Albina Orischuk achieving numerous competition successes during this period. Since 2010, he has resided in Germany, where he pursued postgraduate and master’s studies at the University of the Arts Bremen under Professor Patrick O’Byrne, completing both with distinction, including his concert exam.

​

His studies in composition have inspired his focus on improvisation, which is a central aspect of his musical endeavors. Yasynskyy performs improvisational evenings and interacts with the audience during his solo concerts. His innovative program designs are also reflected in interdisciplinary collaborations. For example, he performs with painters who create artworks in real-time to his music, or with visual artists who accompany his music with live digital impressions.

Yasynskyy has conducted masterclasses worldwide, including at the University of Utah, the National Music Academy of Ukraine, the Pai-Chai University in Daejeon, South Korea, the University of Debrecen, Hungary, the Conservatorio di Lecce, Italy, and the Vere Music Academy in Kyiv.

In May 2015, his first CD was released by the Grand Piano label (Naxos), featuring works by Polish piano master Józef Hofmann, which received enthusiastic reviews from publications such as Gramophone, the American Record Guide, the Fanfare, the French magazine Diapason, and Radio Bremen. An intensive engagement with pre-piano techniques of harpsichordists led to a second CD featuring 18 sonatas by Domenico Scarlatti, released in January 2018 by Naxos, which was again celebrated with excellent reviews. With cellist Maddalena del Gobbo a third CD was released in July 2025 by Supreme Classics, recorded in November 2024 at the Konzerthaus Vienna.
