New Artist-in-Residence, Pianist Anna Geniushene, Comes to Symphony Hall

This November, Music Director Nathalie Stutzmann leads the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra in two programs featuring new Artist-In-Residence, pianist Anna Geniushene, whom Stutzmann personally appointed, performing Brahms’ Piano Concerto No. 2 and Schumann’s Piano Concerto.

Audiences will be treated to the dynamic interplay between Stutzmann, the orchestra and Geniushene, a rising star in the concert world who won the silver medal at the 2022 Van Cliburn Competition. Geniushene first joined Stutzmann with the ASO in April 2025 for Tchaikovsky’s First Piano Concerto. She will return in June to complete her season-long residency with a performance of Rachmaninoff’s Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.

Stutzmann said, “This artist captivated us all during her first visit. I consider her to be one of the Grandes Dames of today’s piano world. Anna possesses everything—technique, but the ultimate technique, the kind that serves the music. She displays extreme sensitivity and finesse, and plays every note with all her heart and soul. It is an immense joy for me to welcome her this year.”
