Soojin Anjou

Soojin Anjou

Soojin Anjou has been played on NTS shows including Trevor Jackson , with Eiskristalle first played on 15 November 2016.

Pianist SooJin Anjou graduated from the Juilliard School in 2002 as the only person ever to win both of Juilliard’s undergraduate commencement prizes, for achievement in music and the liberal arts. While at Juilliard, she was a recipient of the Vladimir Horowitz Scholarship and, having won the school’s annual concerto competition, performed Mozart’s Piano Concerto K.482 with the Juilliard Orchestra conducted by Otto-Werner Mueller. While still a student, she was prominently featured in Asahi-TV’s documentary “New York, New Yorkers”, which was televised in many parts of Asia and released on DVD. Ms. Anjou is an avid performer of contemporary music, and composers have been entrusting their work to her since she was 15. As a member of the New Juilliard Ensemble, she premiered or performed works by, among others, Valentin Silvestrov, Elena Kats-Chernin and David Del Tredici. In 1999, she was soloist with the Ensemble in Lee Hyla’s Piano Concerto No.2, at Alice Tully Hall. In 2010, she will premiere new works by four composers to commemorate the bicentennial of the births of Schumann and Chopin. Currently, she is part of the ensemble performing electronic music legend Morton Subotnick’s new chamber opera “Jacob’s Room” worldwide, following a critically acclaimed premiere at the 2010 Bregenz Festival. Ms. Anjou also devotes herself with enthusiasm to chamber music, especially with voice: she has received intensive coaching from Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Julia Varady and Semjon Skigin on the Lied and opera repertoire. She has a special passion for interdisciplinary projects, and was the musical director of the first German-language production of Moises Kaufman’s play “33 Variations”, which premiered at the Renaissance-Theater Berlin in 2010. A native of South Korea, Ms. Anjou spent her formative years in the United States, making her Boston Symphony Orchestra debut at 16 with Prokofiev’s 3rd Piano Concerto. She became known in Europe after winning a prize at the Robert Schumann Competition in Germany. Ms. Anjou completed her studies at the University of Arts Berlin, with a minor in harpsichord and fortepiano. Her broad repertoire includes more than 20 concertos, ranging from Bach to Berio, as well as the complete works of Ravel and the complete Transcendental Etudes of Liszt. SooJin Anjou is currently based in Berlin.
