Lev Ivanov was born in 1979 in Kyiv, Ukraine, where he began his musical studies at the
age of 5 studying piano in the Gliere Music College and choral singing in the Kiev Children’s Choir
Schedryk. He studied flute in the Kiev Secondary School of Music with Yuriy Zatserkovny and
continued his studies in the Lisenko Special Music School with Vladimir Turbovsky. Lev obtained a
Bachelor of Music degree from the Tchaikovsky National Academy of Music of Ukraine, where he
studied flute and conducting. Later, he successfully entered Academy’s department of orchestral
conducting where he continued his studies with maestro Roman Kofman. Upon relocating to the
United States he obtained a Master of Music degree in Orchestral Conducting from Brigham Young
University. Lev is currently working on his Doctor of Music degree at the Arizona State University,
where he is coaching several University Orchestras and serving as an assistant conductor of Arizona
State University Symphony and Chamber Orchestra.
Lev Ivanov won prizes in the International Chamber Ensemble Competition “Guitaralia”
(Poland), Vorzel International Flute Competition (Ukraine) and Lisenko School of Music
Department of Wind Instruments Competition. In 2007 he was selected to participate in a master‐
class with Thomas Cockrell and Keith Lokhart, held in collaboration with the College Orchestra
Directors Association (United States). In 2008 Lev participated in the Orkney Conducting Course
and St. Magnus Festival (United Kingdom) under the direction of maestro Martyn Brabbins. In the
summer of 2010 Lev participated in the Deer Valley Music Festival coaching and conducting
students from the Park City High School District, where he is planning to return in 2011. Lev Ivanov

As a member of Southwest Liederkranz, she recently participated in two national
