Ann Fontanella is a beauty
with a long list of credentials and repertoire. As
the last protégé of the “OldRussianSchool” style, Ann is a
romantic artist creating rich, warm tones and exact
precision with every note.
After her debut
concert at London’s Wigmore Hall, Ann’s show was
acclaimed as one of the top five concerts of the
2005 season and in 2006 she started the year off
with a performance at Weil Recital Hall of Carnegie
Hall.
Featured in 2007 in
the highly prestigious Rising Stars series of the
Munson-Williams-Proctor Institute, Ann has won
numerous awards in violin performance from widely
recognized organizations, including the Albert
Grenfield Competition, Davidson Institute and the
Virtu Foundation.
Ann plays with conviction and verve, delivering the
sounds of a veteran virtuoso. Whether it’s a
breathtaking version of Tchaikvsky’s Violin Concerto
or Henri Vieuxtemps’ variation of “Yankee Doodle,”
she’ll leave the audience inspired and impressed.
