Year End

It has been such a nice and busy music year! Going over 2019 - and not counting most choral performances - we have counted over 150 live performances of Anna's music.

Among these performances were premieres of two new large-scale pieces - the string quartet Enigma and the orchestral work AION, a 40 min symphonic work commissioned by the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra and co-commissioned by the Iceland Symphony Orchestra.
