Simplicity is the final achievement.
— Frédéric Chopin
 
 

Cellist Anna Seda has dedicated her artistry to the mastery of not only the classical canon but explores contemporary, folk, and popular music. Anna began her cello studies in Denver, Colorado at age four catching the “bug” when she first learned a fiddle tune by ear.

Holding degrees from the University of Colorado, University of Denver, and the Boston Conservatory, some of her most influential mentors include members of the Boston Symphony, Tacaks String Quartet, and Grammy winning multi-style cellist Mike Block, of which she works as his executive assistant.

Internationally, Seda has appeared at the Adriatic Chamber Music Festival in Italy, the Singapore Symphony, Great Wall Soloists in Beijing featured on NPR, and took a sabbatical in Cusco, Peru to teach cello.

Prior to the pandemic her New England based life was dizzyingly full of appearances with orchestras, opera pits, concert series, and studio musician recordings but in the quietude of the “Long Pause”, Seda has stepped into the realm of content creation, bringing more than 60,000 people worldwide entertainment, education, and music on the daily.
