Anastasia Solberg, violist, completed her graduate studies in performance at the Hochsule der Kunste, Berlin, with Prof. Bruno Giuranna. She is founder and director of Ensemble Solange, a mixed chamber ensemble that performed primarily in Europe. Ensemble Solange focused on composers whose works were rarely performed. The ensemble was also involved in numerous radio productions.

Anastasia has been the violist for the American Festival of Microtonal Music since 1996 and has many world premiers to her credit, including works by: Victoria Bond, Anton Rovner, Violetta Dinescu, and Luc Marcel. Anastasia most recently played all seven viola parts on a recently released CD, Universe Symphony, encompassing the works of Charles Ives. She is currently working on two recordings featuring the complete chamber works of Rebecca Clarke and the 17 poems by LI Po set for intoned voice and adapted viola, with her own transcription and adaptation. The CD Violist features performances with the AFMM from the last 10 years and was released in December of 2009.
