London-born Anna Clyne is a composer of acoustic and electronic music, combining resonant soundscapes with propelling textures that weave, morph and collide in dramatic explosions. Created for cutting-edge choreographers, film-makers and musicians, her work has been commissioned and performed throughout the US and internationally. Recent commissions include Carnegie Hall, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Roulette/Jerome Foundation, Tactus, Opus21, Seattle Chamber Players, SEAMUS/ASCAP and the Los Angeles based Hysterica Dance Company where she is resident composer.
Her music has been performed by a wide range of ensembles that include the American Composers Orchestra, Minnesota Orchestra, ETHEL, janus trio and Electric Kompany. Her music was recently selected for Spark Festival, Bang on a Can Summer Institute, River to River Festival, Ear to the Earth Festival, 3P Festival, New York Musical Theatre Festival, d.u.m.b.o Dance Festival, Australian Exchange Film Festival, Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Guadeamus Interpreter's Competition, SEAMUS Conference, and a master class with Pierre Boulez.
Anna Clyne holds a first-class Bachelor of Music with honors degree from Edinburgh University and a Master of Music degree from the Manhattan School of Music. Her unique musical language has been described as "darkly apocalyptic" (New York Times), "a tension of extremes" (Los Angeles Times) "electric, daring, incredibly imaginative" (Entertainment Today) "a shift to melodic beauty with a seedy underbelly" (NewMusicBox) "haunting and completely enthralling" (Heaneyland) "teeming, difficult and innovative" (New York Times) "evokes magic" (The Scotsman) "a modern sensibility and a pulsating, frenetic vocabulary - a fearless journey into pop culture's underbelly" (Flavorpill) and "SO rad" (Poisonolive)
"My passion is collaborating with innovative and risk-taking musicians, film-makers, visual artists and, in particular, choreographers...."

Sorry I missed your jam Anna. I was really looking forward to it but the airlines and weather had different plans for me. Heard it went off well. Catch you next time.
Hola Anna!! Long time I haven't seen you and you have not seen your Spanish brother! Congratulation for your compositions! I hope to see you soon and maybe we can have a gig like in the old goody time in Edinburgh! I heard you are back in London for a week and then you will go strait back to New York. Maybe next time you could come to Newcastle to see the crazy hybridity I am creating with the electro-flamenkos! Besos & Best wishes!
Mr paco
