Anna Saulowna Luboshutz (Russian: Анна Сауловна Любошиц; 13 July 1887 – 20 February 1975) was a Russian cellist. She was a gold medal winner in 1908 at the Moscow Conservatory[1] and had a major performing career in Russia. She was active as a soloist—often with the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra—and in a chamber ensemble, the Luboshutz Trio, with her sister, the violinist Lea Luboshutz and her brother, the pianist Pierre Luboshutz.[2] She was the first Soviet cellist to be awarded the title “Honored Artist of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic.”
