Anna Fedorova was born in Kiev, Ukraine on February 27, 1990. Her parents were both concert musicians. She started piano lessons at five with her parents, and gave her first recital just a year later. At seven, she performed with the National Philharmonic Society of Ukraine.
Fedorova won several prizes as a youngster, including the International Frederick Chopin Competition for Young Pianists, and began to land concert bookings. She enrolled at Kiev’s Lysenko Musical College for Gifted Children, studying for five years under a scholarship donated by the president of Ukraine, graduating in 2008.
Fedorova went on to the Royal College of Music in London, studying with Norma Fisher, and she rounded out her education with master classes under András Schiff, Alfred Brendel, and Menahem Pressler.
Fedorova has appeared with orchestras around the world, including the Dallas Symphony, the Royal Philharmonic in London, and the Hong Kong Philharmonic. She is a frequent guest at festivals including the International Piano Festival in Trieste, Italy, the Corfu Festival of Arts in Greece, and the International Chamber Music Festival in Koblenz, Germany.
