Russian media are reporting the death of Dmitri Teterin, winner in 1998 of the Cincinnati international piano competition and runner up in several other big contests. Dmitri enjoyed a brief international career before enjoying a life of teaching and jury service.

He was a student in Cleveland of Sergei Babayan.

No cause of death has been disclosed.

We send sympathies to his family.

    Is he the pianist Olga Kern briefly married? If so I assume he was essentially survived by a piano prodigy son?
