Hanna Csermely grew up in Southampton for the majority of her life where her passion for music was ignited. Aged 7, she began having piano lessons and participated in many competitions and music festivals with great success which resulted in her receiving the award for ‘Most Promising Pianist’ and opportunities to perform at prestigious venues.

Aged 16, Hanna was offered a place on the Hampshire Specialist Music Course to study with Samantha Carrasco. During her time on the course, she was selected to play in a master class at Steinway Hall with Charles Owen, received a high distinction for her ARSM diploma and performed Shostakovich’s Second Piano Concerto.

Hanna is in her third year at the Royal Northern College of Music under the tutelage of Helen Krizos. Her time at the RNCM so far has resulted in being awarded ‘Highly Commended’ in the Underrepresented Competition and ‘Award for Pianist’ in the James Oncken Song Prize.
