About
A lifetime at the piano.
A pianist and lyrical soprano, raised in and around the Church, who loves nothing more than carrying a family through the biggest day of their lives.
Hello, I’m Anhthu.
I’m a pianist and a lyrical soprano with a bright, clear tone people tend to remember. 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. Weddings grew naturally out of that, and they’ve become the work I’m known for.
What I love most is setting the mood and telling a story: reading the room, changing key or smoothing a long pause without anyone noticing, and singing comfortably in Vietnamese, English, and Spanish. Bringing those traditions into one ceremony, so everyone in the pews feels at home, is the work I’m proudest of.
When I’m not at the piano, I teach school and I’m raising three kids — which is its own kind of performance.
Her path
How the music got here.
The piano, then the voice
Classical lessons at the keyboard from a young age, and a soprano voice that found its home in sacred music.
Years of liturgy
Cantoring, accompanying choirs, and leading worship through the full calendar of the Church — where I learned how music carries a room.
One bench, many tongues
Singing in Vietnamese, English, and Spanish — and learning to move between them so no one in the family is left out.
Weddings, and a full life
The ceremony work I’m known for, woven around teaching school and raising three children in San José.

See me lead a room.
A congregation singing together, with me leading from the keys — the closest thing to standing in the pews.

What I bring
More than someone who plays.
I know the Mass
Years of Catholic ceremonies mean I know the structure, the priest’s requirements, and the moments couples don’t know to ask about. I remove the overwhelm.
One ceremony
I sing fluently in Vietnamese, English, and Spanish, and blend cultural traditions seamlessly within a single service.
I read the room
I sight-read, and I pivot in the moment — stretching a piece for a long procession or softening it for a quiet one, so the music always fits the day.
Say hello
I’d love to hear about your day.
