About Anna

Cellist Anna Seda has dedicated her artistry to the mastery of not only the classical canon but explores contemporary, folk, and popular music. Anna began her cello studies in Denver, Colorado at the age of four when she first learned a fiddle tune by ear.

Holding degrees from the University of Colorado, the University of Denver, and the Boston Conservatory. Her mentors include members of the Boston Symphony and the Tacaks String Quartet.

Anna is also mentored by Grammy winning cellist Mike Block who employs her as an executive assistant.

Internationally, Seda has appeared at the Adriatic Chamber Music Festival in Italy, the Singapore Symphony, Great Wall Soloists in Beijing featured on NPR, and took a sabbatical in Cusco, Peru to teach cello.

Prior to the pandemic, her New England based life was dizzyingly full of appearances with orchestras, opera pits, concert series, and studio musician recordings but in the quietude of the “Long Pause,” Seda has stepped into the realm of content creation, bringing more than 60,000 people worldwide entertainment, education, and music on the daily.
