Anna Lowenstein is a Klezmer violinist from London, training initially in Classical music and graduating with a BA in Music and Ethnomusicology from Manchester University in 2015. She has been studying Klezmer for over ten years and is fast becoming a sought after performer and teacher of the Klezmer fidl tradition. She has travelled internationally to learn from some of the leading performers and teachers of the style. Anna is a founding member of Loshn, a Klezmer trio playing Yiddish folk music alongside Susi Evans (She’koyokh, London Klezmer Quartet) on accordion and John Macnaughton (RAKA, Oysland) on clarinet. From September-November 2021, Anna appeared in the European debut of Paula Vogel’s Toni Award winning play, Indecent at The Menier Chocolate factory. The production was met with wide critical acclaim, and was chosen as The Guardian’s no.1 theatre show of the year in their New Year roundup. Her love of storytelling has lead her to develop a warm, welcoming and communicative performance style that is as educational as it is engaging.
