Michael McGlynn
On this website you will find a selection of my music for voices and other combinations to explore and purchase. On each page you will find images of the scores and usually a video showing the music in performance. If you purchase music in the Irish language it will automatically come with a Pronunciation Guide. Don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions or enquiries.
You can read my full biography here or view the film Echoes of Ireland which was released this year. I am the Artistic Director and founder of the ANÚNA Collective which is comprised of the vocal ensembles ANÚNA, M’ANAM and Systir.
Please note that if you purchase choral music you will need a copy for each member of your ensemble.
