Anna Han is an American pianist and winner of numerous prestigious competitions. Her cross-border artistic work reflects a wide range of influences: she has studied in five countries and regularly collaborates with renowned artists of different generations. She is currently one of four students of Sir András Schiff at the Kronberg Academy.

‘The prodigiously gifted Anna Han […] played with such incisive power and assurance that you felt you could follow her into battle […]. It may have been Han’s naturalism and grace at the piano, though, that impressed the most’, wrote The Washington Post in 2016 about her playing.

During the concert evening, she will respond to the themes of the ‘After Nature . Ulrike Crespo Photography Prize 25’ exhibition through her selection of pieces.
