Tanya Anisimova: Sound and Story
Music, Poetry and the Spirit Behind the Sound
“Tanya Anisimova: Sound and Story” offers an immersive and deeply human concert experience that weaves together performance, poetry, and personal narrative. A Chechen‑born American cellist, composer, and painter, Anisimova is internationally recognized for her celebrated transcription and recording of J.S. Bach’s Six Violin Sonatas and Partitas for cello. Her emotionally rich performances and improvisational mastery have prompted The Washington Post to praise her as a “thoughtful and powerful” artist with spiritual presence.
In this program, Anisimova pairs cello works with spoken word, sharing poetry and stories that illuminate the inspirations behind her art. The result is a performance where music becomes narrative and narrative becomes music—a space where the cello speaks with honesty, imagination, and soulful clarity.
Tickets may also be purchased in person at the Arts Barn box office or by contacting the Arts Barn.
The City's performing arts programs are funded in part by a grant from the Maryland State Arts Council (MSAC). To discover more about MSAC grants & how they impact Maryland's arts sector, visit msac.org.
