About Joanna Borrett
I'm a composer and cellist. I've had several books of string music published and I'm a house composer at Kevin Mayhew. Two of my duets were chosen for the ABRSM 2024 cello syllabus.
My first string orchestra work - Clan - was recorded by Her Ensemble and the recording was chosen as Album of the Weekend by Scala Radio, Video of the Day by Gramophone and has been played on played on Radio 3's programmes Earlier and Classical Unwind. Clan has also been played at the royal investitures at Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh.
My song cycle, Moments of Freedom, has just been recorded by Angelina Dorlin- Barlow and Firoze Madon at the Royal College, and my beginner cello book - Wild Cello - has just been published. I'm currently working on string orchestra music.
