Anne Veinberg – piano

Australian pianist Anne Veinberg (1986) is one of the most versatile pianists of her generation, currently based in the Netherlands. Her repertoire encompasses a wide range of stylistic influences, from classical repertoire to electro-acoustic and interdisciplinary

works. Anne has been soloist with The Queensland Orchestra and The National Capital Orchestra among others. She has performed in Australia, The Netherlands, Canada, United Kingdom and France, in venues such as De Doelen, Feliz Meritis, Muziekgebouw

aan ‘t Ij, Wigmore Hall, Banff Arts Centre and the Sydney Opera House. She has also

been broadcasted on radio and television on various occasions. As an active contributor to the contemporary music scene, Anne regularly collaborates with composers. She has worked with a.o. Wim Hendrickx, Jorrit Tamminga, Michael Young

and gave premieres of works by a.o. Felipe Ignacio Noriega, Andys Skordis, Lorenzo Alvaro and Charlie Sdraulig.

In 2010, Anne gave the premiere of Jos Zwaanenburg’s “oo” for piano, voice (with Lore Binon) and live electronics. This further inspired her to explore the combination of piano and electronics, writing her Master’s thesis on the art of performing on piano with live

electronics, and leading to her latest project, Keys & Cables. In 2011, through the “klanktheater”, Anne commissioned and premiered “as i hear it”; a music theatre piece by Anthony Dunstan. Her music theater show, The Piano and Me, incorporating this work and both standard and less standard piano repertoire was performed in the Grachten Festival 2012.

Anne was the winner of the Grachten Festival Conservatory Concours 2009, keyboard finalist in the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) Young Performers Award 2008 and semi-finalist in the 2011 Gaudeamus Interpreters Prize, amongst others. She has

been supported by the J Vonks Fond, Australian Music Foundation, the Donovan Johnson Scholarship, FW Homeward Memorial Scholarship and held a full fee faculty merit scholarship for the duration of her undergraduate studies at the Melbourne Conservatorium, University of Melbourne. Anne is a former student of Daniel Herskovitch and Ronald Farren Price, and is currently in the final stage of her Masters at the Conservatorium of Amsterdam where she follows electronic subjects with Jos Zwaanenbrug and is a piano student of David Kuyken.
