Michael McGlynn

Born: 11th May 1964, Dublin, Ireland

Nationality: Irish

Michael McGlynn is an Irish composer whose choral music has been the subject of sustained academic analysis for its fusion of medieval, Irish traditional, and contemporary musical elements. Scholarly studies describe his compositional language as characterised by modality, drones, open sonorities, parallel motion, and rhythmic development through repetition, frequently engaging with Irish-language texts and concepts of landscape, ritual, and cultural memory within contemporary Irish art music. His work has been discussed in academic literature on Irish choral nationalism and the transmission of cultural ethos through composition.

McGlynn is the founder and artistic director of the vocal ensemble Anúna, established in 1987, through which many of his works have been premiered and recorded, and which has maintained a long-standing international performance and recording profile.
