   About Michael McGlynn
Here is a selection of pieces written or arranged by Michael.

Anuna director and composer Michael McGlynn is one of Ireland's best-known composers. Anuna have released nine albums since 1993 almost exclusively featuring Michael's arrangements and original works. His choral music is performed world-wide including his piece "Dulaman", which has been recorded many times. He has written instrumental and orchestral music, including "Visions" for saxophone and piano " Silver River" for orchestra and oboe and "Behind the Closed Eye", originally premiered and recorded by The Ulster Orchestra and Anuna.

Michael's musical language is a blend of modal and classical, and his harmonic language, while accessible, is often unexpected. Although much of his music uses avant garde and contemporary compositional styles, he sits uncomfortably in any musical camp, veering from melodic and powerful rhythmic music to microtonal experimental pieces. You can visit his uninformative website at

I love writing in the third person...

"Victimae", "Cormacus Scripsit" & "Hinbarra" performed by Anúna.

Chanticleer performing Michael's "Dulaman" - thanks guys - great performance!

Michael, you need to do a repeat with the Boston Pops if it's in the schedule for you!!! Hope all is well with you and your family... my friend, Alexandra Bonds at the University of Oregon has been doing absolutely extraordinary period costuming for over 30 some years... if you ever need exquisite hand-made/crafted period costumes, contact Alexandra (my friend)... here's a link to some of her costuming "wonders"...

Thanks for becoming a friend. I first heard your music on the Prey Trio site - their performance of your piece "Triplets" - which was wonderful. Glad to make the discovery of your music.
