Bio

As a composer, Anna Cazurra has produced works—some of which have been recorded and released on compact discs—in a wide spectrum of genres and musical resources, including piano music, chamber music, vocal music, symphonic music, and staged dramatic works. Her artistic aesthetic tends toward a language with tonal roots but treated with nonrestrictive freedom and enriched by elements from other cultural systems, far removed from European classical traditions. Her fascination with other cultures has induced her to assimilate aspects of folkloric or refined traditions from other countries.
Her work bears a strong biographical stamp, as a consequence of that inquisitive and anxious spirit that spurs her on to investigate, to experience, and to experiment. One could say that she cultivates three types of musical style: one of them would be linked to the style called “postmodernism”; another is steeped in irony; and yet another could be called “contemporary” without necessarily being “experimental.”
