“My name is Anthony Ho, and I was born and raised in San Jose, California. I began playing piano at the age of six and studied privately throughout my childhood and early teenage years. My journey as a church musician began in 2011 when I started playing during Mass alongside my older brother, learning the art of accompaniment through shared ministry and experience.

I earned a Bachelor of Music degree from the University of California, Santa Cruz, and have served as a pianist in Catholic churches throughout the Bay Area for over a decade. During that time, I have accompanied congregations, choirs, and soloists at various parishes in San Jose and Fremont. I also served for two years as a pianist at St. Philip the Apostle Episcopal Church in Scotts Valley under the leadership of Rev. Katherine Doar. In addition to piano and organ, I also play a bit of bass guitar.

I enjoy a wide range of musical styles, including classical, sacred, and contemporary worship music. What I value most about accompanying is the opportunity to support others through music. Whether working with a congregation, choir, or soloist, I appreciate the sense of connection that develops when musicians and worshippers move together with a shared purpose—it often feels like breathing together.

Church music has always held a special place in my life because it allows me to unite my passion for music with my faith. I am grateful for the opportunity to serve as a pianist and organist and look forward to helping lead worship through music. Outside of church, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, playing video games, and volunteering in the community.”
