About

Anna Clyne, described as a 'composer of uncommon gifts and unusual methods' by The New York Times, is one of the most in-demand composers today, working with orchestras, choreographers, filmmakers and visual artists around the world. Clyne's unique voice combines tradition with postmodern techniques, giving her listeners a sense of musical adventure that is grounded in the past. From the beautiful elegy Within Her Arms to the defiant power of Restless Oceans, Anna Clyne's music strikes a positive and resilient tone.

Critic reviews

  • “British composer Anna Clyne, born in 1980, has written an outstanding, atmospheric, and moving piece titled Within Her Arms.”

    Pizzicato, Supersonic, September 2025

  • “…a new set of combinations, colours and timbres. It’s enthralling writing, executed with sensitivity… The Baltimore strings here under Marin Alsop judge dynamic and momentum to perfection, very much playing with the softness and elasticity requested in the score…”
