German pianist Anjulie Chen is regarded as one of the most promising young artists of her generation, increasingly establishing herself as a musician of remarkable sensitivity and artistic maturity. Her playing has been praised for its “subtlety, stylishness and warmth” and described as being “full of poise, elegance and feeling.”

Equally active as a soloist and chamber musician, Anjulie has performed across Germany and internationally in Italy, France, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Japan. For the 2026/27 season, she has been selected for the Lake Como International Piano Academy, an internationally renowned mentoring programme for outstanding pianists.
