Anna Yesipova ( _ru. Анна Николаевна Есипова), sometimes cited as "Anna Esipova, Anna Essipova, Annette (or Annetta) Essipoff, Annette Essipova, Annette von Essipow, Anna Jessipowa") (OldStyleDate|12 February|1851|31 January, Saint Petersburg - OldStyleDate|18 August|1914|5 August, Saint Petersburg) was a prominent Russian pianist.

She was born Anna Nikolayevna Yesipova in Saint Petersburg. She was one of Teodor Leszetycki's most brilliant pupils. She made her début in Saint Petersburg in 1871 attracting rave reviews and the artistic admiration of both Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and Franz Liszt, particularly for her effortless virtuosity and singing tone. She then began concert tours which brought her in 1876 to the United States, where her playing was greatly admired. She heard the playing of Fanny Bloomfield and advised her to train under Leszetycki, whom Yesipova married in 1880 and later divorced. From 1893 to 1908 she was professor of pianoforte at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory. Among her students were Sergei Prokofiev, Maria Yudina, Isabelle Vengerova, Leo Ornstein and Thomas de Hartmann.
