New Classical Tracks - Anna Clyne and Eric Jacobsen

Anna Clyne, composer: Shorthand; with the Knights (Sony Classical)

English composer Anna Clyne has a diverse and exciting career. She’s performed as a cellist for rock bands, worked as a florist and “loves being creative in various different guises.” Although she’s trained as a classical musician, she loves all types of music, especially folk music, elements of which you can hear on her latest recording featuring the Knights. Listen as host Julie Amacher speaks to Clyne and Eric Jacobson of the ensemble about their recent collaboration on the latest episode of New Classical Tracks.
