Anat Malkin Almani

Anat Almani
Israeli-born Anat Almani began her violin studies with her father, Isaac Malkin.

At the age of ten, she toured as a soloist in California, Mexico and Norway. She made her Carnegie Hall debut at the age of 16 under the baton of Alexander Schneider.

Other performances have taken her throughout Holland, Israel, Italy, Korea, Colombia, Argentina, Uruguay, the United Kingdom and the United States. She is the recipient of numerous awards and was the winner of many competitions. She has been heard on WQXR in New York as part of the Young Artists Series hosted by Robert Sherman.

An active chamber musician, Ms. Almani performs regularly with her sister, violinist Bracha Malkin, as part of the The Malkin Duo. Among a few of the Duo’s highlights have been recitals in Israel, in Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall and the premier performance of David Ward-Steinman’s Concerto for Two Violins in La Jolla, California. Ms. Almani holds a Bachelor’s Degree from the Juilliard School, where she studied with Cho-Liang Lin, and has a Master’s Degree, cum laude, from the Maastricht Conservatorium in Holland, where she studied with Boris Belkin.

In his book entitled Violin Virtuosos from Paganini to the 21st Century, Henry Roth named her as one of the "gifted young violinists who are among the vanguard leading the march of violin art into the 21st century". Ms. Almani is on the faculty at the Manhattan School of Music Preparatory Division.
