- An excerpt from the world premiere of CATAMORPHOSIS with the Berlin Philharmonic and Kirill Petrenko in January 2021.
The core inspiration behind CATAMORPHOSIS is the fragile relationship we have to our planet. The aura of the piece is characterized by the orbiting vortex of emotions and the intensity that comes with the fact that if things do not change it is going to be too late, risking utter destruction - catastrophe. The core of the work revolves around a distinct sense of urgency, driven by the shift and pull between various polar forces - power and fragility, hope and despair, preservation and destruction.
Full performance available in the Berlin Philharmonic Digital Concert Hall:

Amazing, as usual. Her music gets deep in my head and stays there forever.
A surrealistic journey that really gets under your skin. I especially liked the part "Polarity". Many, many thanks for this Anna.
Love love… your original sound.
I used to say that I dont like contemporany music how ever your music is great. It has something really special. Love it. Thank u!
Awesome composition, incredible tones & textures !
Fantastic. Thank you so much.
Breathtaking!
Witnessed this performed just last week by the New York Philharmonic opening up for Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. Wonderful pairing, a night of cosmic and beautiful darkness! I was absolutely blown away by this piece and have been raving about it since. Those slow string pitch bends give me goosebumps.
Such a cool piece. I listened to it yesterday and there are so many interesting different elements. I love how you play with timbre.
A masterpiece. It is contained in the volume 1 of Atmospheriques.
Her music gets in my heart and stays there forever
Visions of Iceland. A true genius.
I really want to listen to all of it, can I buy it somewhere?

Sorry Anna, the link is dead.
@@marvelousjester655 Many thanks for letting me know - it is quite strange that the link works if you copy and paste it, but does not seem to work by clicking on it… so it should work - we also have the same link (that works) in a post on my other social media…
@@annathorvalds You're welcome! I see, it's another one of the nefarious scheme's of TH-cam/Google where they want to track or register every click to a link within a comment. If you hover over the link in your comment you'll see it precedes a TH-cam generated redirect.
@@annathorvalds Thank you for the link and the wonderful composition!
