Anna Alt (also known as Soloist Anna Alt, German: Solistin Anna Alt) is a 1945 German drama film directed by Werner Klingler. The movie stars Anneliese Uhlig, Will Quadflieg and Emil Lohkamp.^[1] The story follows a talented pianist who sacrifices her own career to support her husband's composing ambitions.

It was one of only twelve films released in Nazi Germany in 1945, due to increasing difficulties of film production during the later stages of the Second World War. It premiered at the Marmorhaus in Berlin.
