David Karapetyan is a self-taught, prize-winning composer and pianist whose music merges deep mathematical
structure with Romantic expressivity. His love of structure and precision led him to earn a Ph.D. in Mathematics, though classical music has always been his vocation—an obsession that began suddenly at age twelve, particularly with the German tradition. Without formal training, he taught
himself to play and compose on the piano shortly thereafter, developing a rigorous yet emotionally charged style.
