Anner Bylsma (Anne Bijlsma, The Hague, February 17, 1934 - 25 July 2019) was a Dutch cellist who played on both modern and authentic baroque style instruments.

In 1959, he won first prize in the Pablo Casals Competition in Mexico. Later he was the principal cellist for six years in the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra from 1962 to 1968.

In 1979 Bijlsma recorded the first ever recording of the six Suites for unaccompanied cello (BWV 1007-1012) by J. S. Bach on a period instrument. He also made a second recording of the same music in 1992 on the large "Gervais" Stradivarius and on a five string violoncello piccolo
