Born in Kiev, Ukraine, Paul T. Stetsenko began his formal studies at the Rheingold M. Glière Music College and continued them at Kiev Conservatory.  While still studying at Kiev Conservatory, Paul Stetsenko performed throughout Ukraine and the Baltic states.

In 1990 he moved to the US and continued his studies at New York's esteemed Juilliard School, majoring in Organ Performance.  He first received his Master's degree and a few years later graduated with a doctorate.  

Since his US debut, he has appeared as a recitalist and soloist in numerous venues including Alice Tully Hall and Paul Hall in Lincoln Center, Organ Concert Series at Columbia University, the Keyboard Series at Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church, The Church of St. Mary the Virgin,
The Cathedral of St. John the Divine, all in New York City; the University of Salisbury in Maryland, the Fourth Presbyterian Church (Chicago), The Washington National Cathedral, at the Bach Marathon in Chevy Chase Presbyterian (Washington, DC), and many others. 

Currently, Dr. Stetsenko is Director of Music Ministries at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Alexandria, Virginia.

Dr. Stetsenko's repertoire is drawn from the most significant eras and areas of the organ literature; however, the works of two greatest organ composers, J. S. Bach and Max Reger, constitute its core.
