Thirteen Anniversaries is a solo piano work by Leonard Bernstein, published in 1988. It honors thirteen people who were important in his life. The piece comes after his earlier anniversary sets: Seven Anniversaries, Four Anniversaries, and Five Anniversaries. Each movement is a tribute to one person, and some dedications are to someone closely connected to the person honored. The work was first performed in 1998 by pianist Alexander Frey in Berlin. Each movement has a title that references the person it commemorates.
