At the end of the day...
...aren’t we all looking for the same thing? Recognition and love… and this is where music helps!
Having started tinkling the ivories at the age of four, Annette achieved a distinction in her Grade 8 piano exam at 17.
As an event pianist and singer, she has built up an extensive repertoire as a musician, tailoring her music to suit each occasion. Her performances move effortlessly between a variety of genres:
-
Golden oldies
-
Film themes
-
Classical music
-
Blues, Ragtime, Boogie
-
Her own original compositions
Performing without recourse to sheet music, she captivates audiences with her infectious enthusiasm, creating an unforgettable musical experience.
Yashpon Music®
Annette draws inspiration for her musical compositions from the romantic ups and downs of everyday life – sometimes her own experiences, sometimes those of others.
Her development as a musician, pianist and composer is not only about finding an individual expressive outlet but rather focuses on sharing her stories with audiences, allowing them to discover and feel their own stories through her music, moving them emotionally and giving them pleasure..
Her love of music started for a completely different reason, one she remembers clearly:
“It was all due to sibling rivalry, as my brother, almost two years older than me, had already started learning piano.
I was four at the time and so of course wanted to do everything he did – only better!
With my little legs dangling from the piano stool, too short to reach the pedals, my journey into music began…”
