Winner of the 2019 Michael Hill International Violin Competition Anna
Im and beloved New Zealand pianist Stephen De Pledge come together for
a concert of works by Mozart, Beethoven, Wieniawski and Clara
Schumann. This is a celebration of the beauty of the violin and piano,
and a chance to support exciting young talent. Anna Im started playing
the violin aged six and just two years later was invited to perform
for the Thai Royal Family. After winning various competitions in
Korea, Anna was awarded a full scholarship by the Korean Government to
study at the Korean National Institute for the Gifted in Arts, and in
2012 she received a scholarship to study at the Millfield senior
school in the UK. Anna has studied with Shmuel Ashkenasi and Aaron
Rosand at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia since 2014,
and has maintained her tutelage with So-ock Kim since 2012. She has
been kindly loaned instruments for her performances from the Beares
International Violin Society. Presented in partnership with the
Michael Hill International Violin Competition.
