Elements has an uncanny ability to connect with listeners. Perhaps that’s because it was written at a pivotal period in Anna’s life. While coping with her mother’s diagnosis of Alzheimer’s and an existential crisis of her own, the compositions on this CD literally poured out of her. The result is a musical tapestry of rich emotions and haunting melodies. If there is one resounding theme in Elements, it is hope.

Anna began studying classical music at age eight, and was the recipient of both the IVS and Chicago Academy for the Arts scholarships. Currently residing in Chicago, she has performed at the Chicago Botanic Gardens, Around the Coyote Festival, Sulzer Library, and numerous other venues. With clear classical and Irish influences (her mother was born and raised in Ireland), Anna's music has been compared to Enya, Michael Nyman, George Winston, and even Debussy. Selections from Elements have been featured in a variety of independent films as well as on NPR's Morning Edition and Open Mic. In addition, the song "Eye of the Sequoia" aired on The Weather Channel, and "Ocean" was the inspiration for a dance piece by San Diego choreographer Christina Kelley.
