安妮‧加斯蒂內爾自幼展現卓越天賦，11 歲便進入法國里昂國立高等音樂舞蹈學院（CNSMD）。她曾師從馬友友、János Starker與Paul Tortelier，在這些大師的指導下精進技藝，並對其個人及音樂發展產生了深遠影響，同時他們也早在加斯蒂內爾身上看見了一位非凡藝術家的成熟度。安妮‧加斯蒂內爾曾在多項重要國際大賽，如荷蘭Scheveningen、布拉格及羅斯托波維奇大賽中屢獲殊榮，並開始活躍於歐洲樂壇。1997 年，她獲Marta Casals Istomin（Pablo Casals妻子）遴選，有幸使用傳奇大提琴家Pablo Casals曾擁有的Matteo Goffriller大提琴演奏一年。

2006 年，安妮‧加斯蒂內爾榮獲法國文化部「法國音樂勝利獎」（Victoire de la Musique）年度「最佳獨奏家」，而此前她已獲得「最佳新秀」及「最佳錄音」等殊榮。

她以獨奏、室內樂的形式與頂尖的法國及世界著名樂團合作，演奏足跡遍及全球最頂級的音樂殿堂，包括柏林音樂廳、香榭麗舍劇院、維也納音樂協會、三得利音樂廳、夏特雷劇院、維多利亞音樂廳、巴黎愛樂廳、威格摩爾音樂廳、里昂國立管弦樂團音樂廳與阿姆斯特丹皇家大會堂等。她曾與Yehudi Menuhin, Mstislav Rostropovitch及Kurt Sanderling等音樂大師同台演出。在音樂職涯中，她也與眾多指揮家及作曲家展開深度交流，包括Emmanuel Krivine, Daniele Gatti, Pinchas Steinberg, Krzysztof Penderecki, Michel Plasson, Alexandre Bloch及Paavo Järvi等。

在室內樂領域，她長期與鋼琴家Claire Désert合作，並錄製多張專輯，曲目涵蓋普朗克、法朗克、舒伯特、舒曼與蕭邦等作品。此外，她亦與Hermès四重奏、Nicholas Angelich, Andreas Ottensamer, David Grimal, Philippe Cassard, Xavier Philipps及法國大提琴樂團（French cellos）等音樂家合作。

近十五年來，她的錄音頻獲國際大獎肯定。2018 年，她與Nicholas Angelich及Gil Shaham、Paavo Järvi及法蘭克福廣播交響樂團合作錄製的貝多芬《三重協奏曲》，榮獲法國權威古典音樂雜誌《Classica》最佳推薦獎。2020 年，她與David Grimal及Philippe Cassard錄製的《貝多芬三重奏全集》（La Dolce Volta發行）榮獲金音叉獎及《Classica》最佳推薦獎。2021 年，她與Claire Désert合作推出的最新專輯，由 Naïve 廠牌發行，則專注於蕭邦作品。

安妮‧加斯蒂內爾目前使用一把 1690 年製的Testore大提琴。

自 2003 年起，她擔任里昂國立高等音樂舞蹈學院教授，並於2022 年起任教於賈洛斯基音樂學校（Académie Jaroussky）。

A precocious talent, Anne Gastinel entered the CNSMD in Lyon at the age of 11. Yo-Yo Ma, János Starker and Paul Tortelier, with whom she later perfected her skills and who had a profound influence on her artistic and personal development, already recognised in her the maturity of an exceptional musician. She won numerous prizes at major international competitions (Scheveningen, Prague, Rostropovich) and soon performed across Europe.

In 1997, she was selected by Marta Casals Istomin to play Pablo Casals' legendary Matteo Goffriller cello for a year. 

In 2006, Anne Gastinel received the Victoire de la Musique award as "Soloist of the Year" (after previously winning in the "Young Talent" and "Best Recording" categories).

Her career takes her to the most prestigious concert halls worldwide (Théâtre des Champs-Élysées, Musikverein, Suntory Hall, Théâtre du Châtelet, Victoria Hall, Philharmonie de Paris, Wigmore Hall, Auditorium de Lyon, Concertgebouw Amsterdam etc.), where she appears in recital, chamber music and as a soloist with leading French and international orchestras. She has performed under great masters such as Yehudi Menuhin, Mstislav Rostropovich and Kurt Sanderling. She also enjoys collaborating with conductors and composers such as Emmanuel Krivine, Daniele Gatti, Pinchas Steinberg, Krzysztof Penderecki, Michel Plasson, Alexandre Bloch and Paavo Järvi.

A passionate chamber musician, Anne Gastinel regularly performs with Claire Désert, with whom she has recorded numerous acclaimed albums (Poulenc, Franck, Schubert, Schumann, Chopin…). Other chamber music partners include Quatuor Hermès, Nicholas Angelich, Andreas Ottensamer, David Grimal, Philippe Cassard, Xavier Philipps and Les Violoncelles Français.

For nearly fifteen years, her recordings have been honoured with top awards. In 2018, her recording of Beethoven's Triple Concerto with Nicholas Angelich, Gil Shaham, Paavo Järvi and the Frankfurt Radio Orchestra received the "Choc" from Classica Magazine. The complete Beethoven trios, released in 2020 by La Dolce Volta with David Grimal and Philippe Cassard, were awarded both a Diapason d'or and a Choc Classica. Her latest album, released in 2021 by naïve, is dedicated to Chopin, in a duo with Claire Désert.
