WATCH

"Anna’s choral music beautifully treads the line between being accessible and challenging, creating wonderful sound worlds which bring our the narrative of the text without over complicating it. Whether commissioning a new piece or using one of her many existing works Anna has always been a joy to work with and every piece I’ve programmed has been popular with both the choir and the audience."

Stuart Overington, Choral Conductor
