About this Artist

Claire M Singer is a composer and performer of both acoustic and electronic music, as well as a creator of films and installations. Her four critically acclaimed releases on Touch feature Singer playing both organ and cello, with her 2025 album “Gleann Ciùin” also featuring the London Contemporary Orchestra. The Guardian describes her music as “building from mournful softness to celestial maximalism,” while MOJO refers to her as a “pipe organ drone maestra” who evokes “the folk music of the spheres.”  Performances include Glasgow Cathedral, Tate Modern London, Westerkerk in Amsterdam (where she opened for the band Low), and the Barbican in London (opening for Stars of the Lid). Her solo organ piece, "The Molendinar," was featured in The New York Times' "5 Minutes That Will Make You Love the Organ."

Awards include the Oram Award in 2017 for her innovation in sound and music and the Festival Castell de Peralada Award for best film score in 2019 (“Tell It To The Bees”). In 2020 her work “Gleann Ciùin” was nominated for an Ivor Novello Award. Recent projects include music for choreographer Robert Binet’s new ballet ‘Dances For The Future’ for the Vienna State Ballet, which premiered in October 2025.
