Evelina De Lain (born Evelina Renatovna Pronskaya on 2 February 1977 in Zhovti Vody near Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine) is a London-based classical/jazz pianist, composer, and arranger known for her classical/jazz crossover composition style. Evelina began studying music at the age of 5, and by the age of 14, she was already teaching music to younger students.[1] She gained her diploma with distinction at M.Glinka Conservatoire of Dnipropetrovsk, specialising in solo piano, chamber music, and accompaniment. Evelina moved to London in 2004, where she formed her classical/jazz trio "Evelina De Lain Trio" originally with piano, viola, and clarinet and later with piano, flute, and cello. Evelina accompanied Broadway stars such as Jeanne Lehman (the original Mrs. Potz from “Beauty and the Beast”) and Kissy Simmons (the original Nahla from “The Lion King”).[2] Evelina tours Europe with classical/jazz/contemporary crossover recitals and regularly performs in London, England with her trio.[3]
