She had previously won major prizes at international competitions in Hanover (Joseph Joachim), Seoul and Tokyo (International Music Competition).

She has performed as soloist with the Montreal Symphony, Nagoya Philharmonic, Kanagawa Philharmonic, Osaka Symphony, Tokyo City Philharmonic, Central Aichi Symphony, Yokohama Sinfonietta, Chubu Philharmonic, Czech Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra, and the Sejong Soloists.With this performance of the Sibelius Violin Concerto, Ayana Tsuji won the 2016 edition of the prestigious Montreal International Musical Competition. Described by Violinist.com as a “great discovery” and “an artist of consummate taste and persuasive musical power”, she was also honoured with five further prizes in Montreal, including Best Semi-Final Recital. The disc includes her performances with pianist Philip Chiu of Stravinsky’s Duo Concertante, recorded at the semi-finals, and Saint-Saëns’ Introduction & Rondo Capriccioso in A minor, taken from the quarter-finals.
