Stanislav Stanislavovich Bunin (russian: Станислав Станиславович Бунин; born 25 September 1966) is a Russian-born concert pianist.

He was born in Moscow in 1966 into an established European musical family which included his grandfather Heinrich Neuhaus, his grandmother Zinaida (Boris Pasternak's second wife), and his father, Stanislav Neuhaus.

In 1985, after a series of prizes, he won first prize and the gold medal in the XI International Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw.

Having obtained German citizenship, in 2012 he was a resident in Japan.

Bunin recorded his interpretations of works by Haydn, Mozart and, most notably, Chopin. Those include works he played for the soundtrack to the 2007 video game ''Eternal Sonata''.
