Larisa Migachyov is a Russian-born composer and ragtime composer. She started piano lessons when she was 5 and continued with her music education learning musical theory, music composition, and related disciplines. She continued her studies after her family moved to the US, but she decided not to pursue a career in music at that time. In 2005 she discovered ragtime thanks to the San Antonio Ragtime Society, and returned to performing and composing. She premiered her first ragtime composition, the "Purple Chicken Rag", at the 2006 Scott Joplin Festival.
