Sergey Sadovoy was born in 1998 in the city of Kherson in Ukraine. At the age of 8 he began to study the accordion at a local music school. In 2014, he entered the College of Music, where he began to actively participate in festivals and competitions. In 2018, he moved to Russia to continue his musical education at the Rostov Academy of Music in the class of Yuri Shishkin, Professor of the Rostov and Shanghai Conservatory. During his studies, Sergey spent at least 8-10 hours every day practicing the accordion. As a result of his relentless work ethic and disciplined rehearsal approach, his playing is distinguished by a high technical level and powerful musicality. His classes with Yuri Shishkin taught him a new way of analyzing the works he performs and they also gave him a new approach to creating a performing concept for any piece that he approaches. During his studies, he participated in several competitions and among his accolades are the 1st place at the Gridin International Competition in Kursk (2019) as well as the Grand Prix at the International Competition of Accordion Performers in Tambov (2019).
