Experience Music Across Generations: Anna Smerdova’s Carnegie Hall Debut on May 23rd

his May 23rd, the world-famous Carnegie Hall in New York will host an event unlike any other—a chance to witness the extraordinary talent of twelve-year-old pianist Anna Smerdova. Hailing from Prague, Anna is not only a rising star on the European music scene, but also a living bridge to a remarkable musical legacy.

Anna’s performance will be more than a concert—it’s a celebration of family, history, and exceptional artistry. Guided first by her grandmother Eva, a devoted piano teacher, Anna’s journey began on a well-loved piano in their Prague home. But her deepest inspiration comes from a generation even further back: her great-great-grandfather, Josef Bartoš, a distinguished Czech composer.

This very special evening will include classics beloved by audiences, but at its heart will be something truly unique. Anna will perform the recently rediscovered “Waltz” written by Bartoš, a piece lost for almost a century and revived through Anna’s dedication and passion. Her ability to bring this long-silent music to life has moved audiences across Europe—and now, for the first time, New York listeners have a chance to experience it firsthand.

Anna is more than just technically brilliant; she plays with a soulful maturity far beyond her years. Her concerts have enchanted critics and earned her top honors at competitions throughout Europe. Now, she steps onto one of the world’s most storied stages, ready to share her story—and her ancestors’—with you.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to be part of an unforgettable night, where the past and future of music meet in the hands of a gifted young artist. Secure your tickets for Anna Smerdova’s Carnegie Hall debut and experience the beauty of a musical legacy reborn.
