From 2013 to 2017 Val Giamo worked as a composer, arranger, pianist, and singer, helping with a wide variety of musical projects, as well as working with many styles of music groups and bands.

In 2019, Val wrote the composition Flying Above The Winds for the compilation of Project 12 by the label Deutsche Grammophon / Universal Music Group.

Val Giamo was introduced to music at an early age. She began playing the piano at the age of five. She was educated, both academically and in classical music, at the Russian Music School n.a. P.I. Tchaikovsky. From 2009 to 2013 Val took private lessons from Y.N. Chugunov, G.E. Minsker in Piano, Harmony and Theory of Music. In 2013, she attended the online Music Production course at the Berklee College of Music.
Diverse education and experience in completely different genres from trip hop to piano music help Val Giamo to create compositions that are completely personal and, at the same time, understandable and moving for each listener.
