Angella Ahn

Violin

Angella Ahn enjoys her success as the violinist for the Ahn Trio. The Trio, hailed as "exacting and exciting musicians" by the LA Times, is made up of three Juilliard-trained Korean-American sisters, pianist Lucia, violinist Angella, and cellist Maria. They have 8 critically acclaimed albums and released their 9th album Blue in the Spring of 2017.  Their ever-evolving vision of what it means to be a 21st century musician, and wide- ranging collaborations, with modern dance companies including a B-boy dance company, film directors, rock bands, DJs, singers, and more, led to the nickname “Classical revolutionaries” given to them by New York Newsday. Their unique approach to music has taken the sisters to Buenos Aires’ Teatro Colon, Vienna’s Musikverein, New York's Lincoln Center, Leipzig's Gewandhaus, Beijing's Concert Hall, Istanbul's Aya Irini in Topkapi Palace, to over 30 countries and every state in America.

Angella, Professor of Violin and Viola at Montana State University, lives in Bozeman, Montana, and shares the much sought-after pedagogy of her mentors Dorothy DeLay and Hyo Kang. She plays a 2013 violin made especially for her by renowned luthier Sam Zygmuntowicz of Brooklyn, New York.
