One of the most gifted and visionary artists of her generation, Anna Lapwood, releases her brand-new album, ‘Firedove’, May 30th on Sony Classical. It is the follow-up to her acclaimed album ‘Luna’. The lead track is the captivating ‘Limina Luminis’, commissioned for and first performed at the 2023 BBC Proms, composed for Anna by Italian composer Olivia Belli. “This piece was part of my first solo recital at the BBC Proms, and I’ve played it in nearly every concert since, because I love it so much.” Anna says.

Already renowned for introducing the organ to new generations of music fans through her extraordinary interpretations of both classical and contemporary works, Anna Lapwood has become known to millions through viral TikTok videos, high-profile collaborations and sold-out live concerts.

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.”

‘Firedove’ effortlessly demonstrates Anna’s open-minded approach to music, one where a Vierne scherzo can sit alongside a rendition of Robbie Williams ‘Angels’, and Maurice Duruflé’s ‘Prelude and Fugue’ with Bob Dylan’s ‘Make You Feel My Love’.
