Rachmaninov, in the class of Professor Sergei Ivanovich Osipenko [3] . Then she entered his class at the Rostov Conservatory. Anna Vinnitskaya in her interviews declares that her mentor will be grateful for her whole life, because he made her a great musician and put a lot of effort, working together with the pianist on sound. She said that not a single foreign professor pays as much attention to his students as Sergei Osipenko. He always insisted that music should inspire, and the task of the musician is to convey something to the viewer, and not to show how fluently the musician plays keys [4] .
After the successes of 1999-2000 at the International Competitions in Italy, Anna continued to improve her skills in the Higher School of Music and Theater of Hamburg in the class of Ralph Nuttkemper, and then with Eugene Korolev. [2]
