Anna Maria Bagger (b. 2001, Karlsruhe, Germany) is a vocalist, composer, and mandolinist with Estonian roots.
She began piano and violin studies at an early age and later joined the children’s choir of her local theatre. At twelve, she discovered the mandolin, an instrument that quickly became central to her musical identity. Between 2015 and 2019, she received several national awards at Jugend musiziert, including two first prizes. Engagements followed with orchestras such as the Württembergische Philharmonie Reutlingen, the Baden-Badener Philharmoniker, and YXUS Ensemble Estonia. In 2019, she performed the mandolin part of Nino Rota’s Godfather Suite with the Mannheimer Philharmoniker.
In addition to her instrumental work, Bagger has appeared on stage as both singer and actor. She made her debut in the musical Der kleine Tag at age ten and later performed as Ronette in Little Shop of Horrors at Germany’s largest open-air theatre in Ötigheim (2021). The same year, she advanced to the Top 16 in the television competition Estonian Idol (Eesti otsib Superstaari) while studying Mathematics at the Technical University of Berlin.
Since 2022, Bagger has been studying Jazz/Pop Vocals at the University of Music and Dance Cologne under Anette von Eichel. She has also participated in workshops with Lauren Newton, Aurora Nealand, and Tamara Lukasheva.
Currently, Bagger focuses on writing and producing her own material, combining her background in classical performance with a contemporary approach to composition and voice.
