From a young age, Anna showed a natural talent for music and began playing the piano at the age of four. She later started studying the violin and quickly became proficient in both instruments. Anna's parents recognized her talent and encouraged her to pursue a career in music. She attended the Conservatorio di Musica Benedetto Marcello in Venice, where she studied under the guidance of some of the most respected music teachers in Italy.

One of Anna's most notable performances was at the 2008 Salzburg Festival, where she played the solo violin part in Vivaldi's Four Seasons with the Salzburg Chamber Orchestra. Her performance was widely acclaimed, with critics praising her "dazzling technique" and "soulful interpretation" of the piece.
