Peer received a master’s degree in voice at the famed Aaron Copland School of Music at Queens College in Flushing, New York, where he also served as an adjunct professor. From 2011 to 2015, Peer was the Music Director for the Arkadi Foundation, a non-profit organization named after his grandfather, renowned opera singer Arkadi Namatiev.
