Piano Sonata

The Polish-American pianist Anna Kijanowska has established herself as a multi-faceted musician, smoothly transitioning between her roles as a performing and recording artist, pedagogue, coach and advocate of contemporary classical music around the world. She has performed, taught and collaborated in North and South America, Asia, Europe, New Zealand, Africa and Australia.

Hailed by The New York Times (2007) as "an excellent young Polish pianist", and by Brazilian critics as "the Tina Turner of classical music" (2010). Kijanowska's concert performances represent the stunning diversity of today's globalized classical music scene; she is equally at home performing at Carnegie Hall as she is in the steppes of Mongolia. Her New York debut took place in 1997 with a live broadcast over WQXR, and to date she has appeared in Carnegie Hall, Merkin Hall (NYC), the Kennedy Center, the National Gallery of Arts in Washington D.C, the Liszt Memorial Museum in Budapest and St. Martin-in-the-Fields in London, as well as in underserved venues such as the Amazon basin in Brazil, the Himalayas in Nepal, and Mongolia.
