Pianist & lyrical soprano · San José

Piano, voice, and parish music.

I grew up in and around the Church, so I love helping families feel steady as we choose music for an important day.

Because I sing and accompany myself, the setup can stay lean while the church still hears both voice and piano together.

In my words

Hello, I’m Anhthu.

I’m a pianist and lyrical soprano with classical training and a bright, clear tone. Music started early for me, at the keyboard and in the choir loft, and it never really stopped.

I trained classically on piano and as a singer, then spent years in parish music: cantoring, accompanying, and leading worship through Masses, feast days, and the seasons of the Church. So when we plan your ceremony, I already know the order of a Catholic Mass and the questions your parish may ask.

What I love most is the live part: reading the room, changing key when needed, smoothing a long pause, and moving between Vietnamese, English, and selected Spanish pieces when they fit, so the family can stay with the prayer.

When I’m not at the piano, I teach second grade, teach music, and raise three kids in San José.

Her path

Where the music comes from.

  1. Preludio

    The piano, then the voice

    Classical piano came first, followed by a soprano voice that found its home in sacred music.

  2. Andante

    Years of liturgy

    Cantoring, accompanying choirs, and leading worship through the Church calendar taught me how music carries a congregation through the Mass.

  3. Intermezzo

    One bench, many tongues

    Singing in Vietnamese and English, with selected Spanish pieces by request, and learning how to move between languages without breaking the prayer.

  4. Tutti

    Weddings, teaching, and family

    Alongside weddings and worship, I teach second grade at a private school, teach music, and raise three children in San José.
