In her solo piano CD, The First Morning, Anne Marie shares her profound love for family through a series of soulful improvisations. Along with 11 originals, she offers arrangements of âMorning Has Brokenâ and âI Danced in the Morningâ (Simple Gifts). In her music youâll hear compassion and empathy. These songs are born in stillness. In her liner notes she refers to one of her pieces as âone of those moments when the piano started a conversation with me, and so we spoke.â

Anne Marie Davidâs angelic voice and inspired piano playing were early apparent in her childhood parish in rural Minnesota. The third of ten children who accompanied their mother, the parish music leader, she showed her independence in her soaring adaptations of church piano standards â a trademark of her two solo piano albums: Here I Am, Lord, and Prayer of St. Francis.

A graduate of Berklee College of Music, Anne Marie is the composer of multiple piano scores for religious presses including Augsburg Fortress Publishers and Abingdon Press. Davidâs broad ministry of liturgical music includes directing and teaching, as well as serving on the faculty of the Boston College Graduate Program for Religious Education and Pastoral Ministry.
