In 2005, he was featured with Japan’s New Japan Philharmonic Orchestra on An American in Paris, a Universal Label release; and later toured Japan with the orchestra to promote the recording. In late 2014, he was awarded a grant to arrange a collection of Brazilian music for vocalist June Bisantz, in preparation for their third recording project together.

 

As co-producer of Russia’s Baikal Waves International Jazz Festival since 2006, Alex has made cross-cultural connections for several Russian Music Festivals, bringing important international artists such as Tania Maria, Richard Bona, Mike Stern, Jeff Tain Watts and Jeff Lorber to Russia.

 

Nakhimovsky’s impressive classical repertoire, which spans the gamut from Bach to Gershwin, has led to performances on some of America’s greatest stages including Carnegie Hall (2007) and Steinway Hall (2000) in New York City. In addition to his multi-level career as a performer, recording artist and concert producer, Alex accompanies and arranges for notable singers from a wide range of musical genres, including jazz, pop, Broadway and classical.
