Anna Eriksson (born 1963) is a composer, sound artist and guitarist living in Gothenburg. She writes commissioned works for soloists, ensembles and orchestras and her music is performed at concerts and festivals around Sweden and Europe. Works for, for example, sinfonietta, percussion, guitar, choir, musical theatre coexist with sound installations and more spatial expressions. Something of a common thread in music creation is the encounter between traditional instruments and various sound objects. Pencil sharpeners, table fans, egg slicers, self-playing cake candles, talking parrots and various scraps have taken their place in the music over the years, both as a contrast and in collaboration with a more melodic soundscape. She has studied composition with, among others, Sven-David Sandström (Gotland's School of Composition) and Ole Lützow-Holm (Composition Programme, School of Stage and Music at the University of Gothenburg). Anna is also a university-educated guitar teacher and works part-time with guitar lessons.
