Maestro Rod Schejtman is one of contemporary music’s most distinctive figures—a symphonic composer, award-winning pianist, engineer, and CEO & Founder of The Piano Encyclopedia, a platform reshaping how the world learns music. His artistic language fuses the structural depth of classical symphonic architecture with the expressive intensity of cinema, combining scientific clarity with emotional resonance.

In 2005, Schejtman founded The Piano Encyclopedia, one of the world’s leading platforms for piano education, and created The Logic Behind Music, a revolutionary methodology that dismantles the myth of “natural talent” and proves that musical genius can be taught. Skills once thought to be exclusive to prodigies—such as playing by ear, improvising, and composing—can now be learned through a clear, logical system. As Forbes described, is "revolutionizing music education" by showing that talent is not innate—it is decoded, structured, and passed on.

Over two decades of refinement, his method has reached more than a quarter million students across 75 countries, generating thousands of success stories and positioning Schejtman as a global pioneer in music education.



Seeking to validate his methodology in the most demanding professional arena, Schejtman entered the WorldVision Composers Contest in Vienna—widely recognized as the premier international competition for classical composers and dubbed "the World Cup of Classical Music." After a rigorous two-year selection process involving 32 countries and more than 60 prestigious institutions—including Steinway & Sons, Bechstein, and the New York Philharmonic—he composed three full-scale symphonic works. Schejtman was crowned global laureate, representing the Argentine Republic.

His award-winning symphonic work Luce Nell’Oscurità ("Light in the Darkness"), written for 80 musicians on stage, was broadcast uninterrupted across Argentina by Radio Nacional, immediately following his award ceremony in Vienna. Schejtman was featured on the front page of Diario Perfil and interviewed by major media including Revista Noticias, Música Clásica BA, Canal 9 TV, Radio Amadeus, CNN TV, and Opera World. He has been repeatedly celebrated as “national pride” on Radio Nacional and other national platforms.

In 2024, Schejtman was personally selected by legendary composer Lalo Schifrin—creator of the Mission: Impossible theme and recipient of six Grammy Awards, six Academy Award nominations, an Honorary Oscar, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame—to co-author Long Live Freedom, a full-length symphonic work dedicated to their shared homeland: Argentina.

As a direct disciple of the giants of 20th-century music, Schifrin shared with Schejtman the secret techniques, musical language, and compositional knowledge he had inherited personally and directly more than half a century ago from Olivier Messiaen and Juan Carlos Paz—both disciples of Ravel and Schoenberg. During their creative work in Los Angeles, Schifrin passed on this artistic legacy—formally placing Schejtman within one of the most prestigious and uninterrupted lineages in Western music history, linking him to the very architects of modern symphonic creation.

The world premiere of Long Live Freedom took place in Buenos Aires, performed by the country’s most important orchestra—the National Symphony Orchestra—under the baton of Maestro Emmanuel Siffert, Principal Guest Conductor of the Republic of Argentina. That same evening, the complete symphony was broadcast nationwide through Public Television and Radio Nacional, immediately following the National Anthem. Shortly after, the work was officially recognized as a Work of Cultural Interest for the Republic of Argentina by the Secretary of Culture under the Office of the Presidency.



This premiere marked the beginning of a high-profile world tour of Long Live Freedom—Schejtman's monumental cultural symphony, created to celebrate the principle of liberty, a universal ideal that unites nations across cultures and histories. The tour will bring the piece to some of the most prestigious concert halls on the planet, with upcoming performances scheduled in Los Angeles, Paris, and other cultural capitals. Each concert will feature not only the symphony but also Schejtman's Vienna award-winning compositions, in a program that bridges tradition and modernity while highlighting freedom as a shared human value—establishing Rod Schejtman as a global ambassador of music.

As a pianist and composer, Schejtman has performed on leading international stages, including the Musilosophy Festival in Rome and Plaça Catalunya in Barcelona, in concerts broadcast by Radio FM 104.5 and Antena 3 TV, as well as special performances for diplomatic circles—further consolidating his artistic projection on a global scale.



In 2025, Schejtman was named Corresponding Member of the Bach Society, founded in 1917, becoming the first Argentine to receive this distinction in more than a century of institutional history. The board’s unanimous decision cited his “outstanding qualities as a pianist, composer, and musician,” and recognized him as “a key figure in contemporary classical music.”

The Co-Author of
Hollywood Star
Lalo Schifrin:


"It has been a very gratifying experience working with Rod Schejtman for the past six months. We have jointly composed a symphony dedicated to Argentina and our optimism that its best days are ahead. This symphony is going to have its world premiere at Buenos Aires, and hopefully, this will be the first of many works we compose together."
