Internationally renowned pianist Anastasya Terenkova combines French poise and her native Russian spirit with “the speed and passion of a Formula One driver” — Jonathan Levi, The New York Times.

Anastasya has received international critical acclaim and numerous awards, including 2nd Prize at the Cincinnati International World Piano Competition, 1st Prize at the Dorothy MacKenzie Artist Recognition Competition, the prestigious 2010 “Gawon” International Music Award, Seoul, South Korea.
