Details:
Anne Roos' love of English and Celtic music blossomed as a child and young teen at Southern California Renaissance Fairs, when she became involved singing in madrigal groups, performing period music. She started playing the Celtic harp quite by accident. While employed at an incredibly stressful job, Anne decided to take up the Celtic Harp from Sylvia Woods on a whim when she saw them displayed at a Winter Solstice Fair. Then came music theory courses at UCLA and eventually teaching music for the Los Angeles Unified School District.

Anne has been performing throughout the country for some twenty-five years as a soloist at resort hotels, convention centers, cruise ships, concert venues, highland games, Celtic and Renaissance fairs, casino clubs, wineries, meditation retreats-- you name it. She has been invited to perform for several dignitaries, including the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Ireland. She makes her home at Lake Tahoe and continues to perform regularly, priding herself on the ability to be versatile and take requests: playing anything from O'Carolan's Irish music and Greensleeves, to Beatles love songs and Stairway to Heaven, and just about everything in between.

Anne's discography displays this ability to be incredibly diverse. Her earliest release is "Through the Mist" , serenely elegant music inspired by both oriental and mid-eastern cultures featuring original New Age flute and harp duets with flutist David Blonski. This recording contains environmental sounds interwoven into the selections, which were improvised in studio. This CD is a favorite among massage therapists and yoga instructors.

Anne's âMermaids & Marinersâ recording contains tunes about the mysterious draw that mermaids and the sea have on mariners. Traditional and original music is arranged by Anne for both solo Celtic Harp and Celtic Harp within a small ensemble of instruments. This beautiful CD filled with sea ballads and shanties is packaged inside a 24-page, hardcover book containing a bounty of illustrations and tales about life at sea and the lost loves of those who sail on its waves and swim at its depths.

Anne's wedding music CD, "Haste to the Weddingâ is now available in a new release. It is filled with romantic Celtic music about everlasting love performed on solo Celtic Harp and with an ensemble of other traditional Celtic instruments. This enhanced recording of Celtic wedding ceremony music is packaged inside a lovely 48-page hardcover book containing vintage color images, Celtic toasts, blessings, legends, recipes, wedding traditions, and descriptions of traditional ceremonial attire. The CD can easily accompany wedding festivities, for the titles flow in the order that music flows at a wedding ceremony.

"I really enjoy improvising from a skeletal idea of a song and seeing where it will go. I always get great new ideas playing with others. So, I relish the time working with great musicians, like the ones on my CDs," says Anne.

Anne is a current member of the Board of Governors for the San Francisco Chapter of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, the Recording Academy. Anne is proud to be involved with this organization which works to positively impact the lives of musicians, industry members and our society at large.
