One of the most gifted and visionary artists of her generation, Anna Lapwood, releases her brand-new album, Firedove , on Sony Classical. It is the follow-up to her acclaimed album "Luna."

Anna recorded her new album "Firedove" through the night at Nidaros Cathedral, a spectacular Gothic masterpiece founded in the 11th century in Trondheim, Norway.

“I wanted to create an album where the listener doesn’t quite know where it’s going to go next,” Lapwood says. “There are lots of little easter eggs in there that you wouldn’t expect — even the first appearance of the choir — and a through-line of flight and spreading wings, because this does feel as though I’ve found what I want to say as an artist. I’m very proud of it.”

On "Firedove" Anna Lapwood brings a breath of fresh air into classical musical making. “Since I started focusing on the music I loved and stopped worrying about what others felt I ‘should’ be doing, I have fallen in love with the organ again in a completely new way” she says.
