In musical circles, the name of Anna Pingina has been known for a long time, and the general public only met her at a performance in the show "The Voice", where she sang the romance "The fierce grandma told me," written to the verses of Marina Tsvetaeva. Her performance amazed both the audience and the jury.
We can say that this was a new discovery of the singer by Russian viewers, because for a long time she lived and worked abroad. Her portfolio includes two of her own albums, awarded international awards, as well as roles in several large-scale musicals. Also, Anna herself writes music close to the genre of folk-rock.
Biography
Anna Ivanovna was born in the Krasnodar Territory, in the small town of Armavir, in 1978. From an early age she was simply in love with music, constantly humming something. This is surprising, because none of the family had any special musical talent. Her father worked in the police, and her mother was a nurse.
Ani's creative abilities were so obvious that her parents enrolled her in a music circle, where children were taught vocals. However, the girl also showed other abilities: she was good at drawing, so she also started going to art school.
While still in high school, Anya learned to play the guitar and formed her own musical group, then she began to compose the first compositions and took the pseudonym "Pingy" for herself.
However, then she did not yet understand that music could become her profession, so after school she entered the law college. Almost immediately, Anya realized that she would not be a lawyer, but she graduated from college, simultaneously performing at folk and rock festivals with her compositions and with songs of other authors.
Pingina still wanted to get a musical education, so she soon became a student at the Krasnodar School of Music. At this time, the musical "West Side Story" was staged in the city, Anna sang in it, and quite successfully.
The next stage of her career began in Moscow - she performed the role of Fleur de Lys in the musical Notre Dame de Paris. This project was incredibly popular, and Anna was busy with it for a long time. Her next job is the role of Mary Magdalene in the musical "Jesus Christ Superstar".
At the same time, Pingina sang in two musical groups, composed music and assembled her own team. In 2006, her first disc, "Moi", was released, which received international awards. And the song "Swallow" has become very popular, largely due to the beautiful video. This song, as well as the song "Heart", became hits.
And only in 2018, having sang the romance "The fierce grandmother told me," on the Voice show, Anna became widely known as a folk singer in Russia.
