About Anna
Hailed by the Washington Post as “prodigiously gifted … a display of imagination, taste and pianistic firepower far beyond her years,” Anna Han strives to deliver heartfelt performances through a variety of classical piano repertoire. She has given performances at venues such as the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and Alice Tully Hall.
A keen chamber music player, she is a founding member of the Munin Piano Trio, and has recorded for the Steinway label.
Anna received her Bachelor and Masters degrees at The Juilliard School under the tutelage of Robert McDonald. As a sophomore, she became the winner of the 2016 Juilliard Gina Bachauer Piano Competition. She received the Professional Diploma at the Royal Academy of Music in London under the tutelage of Christopher Elton, where she was awarded the 2021 Sterndale Bennett Prize.
Anna will be moving to Berlin this fall and studying with András Schiff at the Barenboim-Said Akademie.
