Résumé — Dmitry Malygin

13 years inside the live-music and events industry (since 2013) — from a musician in the orchestra pits of St. Petersburg's largest musicals to the director of a state ensemble. Since 2019, Director of the St. Petersburg Pop-Symphony Orchestra (Peterburg-Concert, a state cultural institution). I work with original and immersive formats, government-level events and international touring. I am now looking to scale this experience beyond a single ensemble.
