Discovery: Hannah Schneider

Danish composer Hannah Schneider is a new discovery of mine, but I’ll surely be sharing more of her stuff in the future!

Vandtrapper is our first introduction to Hannah’s music – it’s a gorgeous piece of classical music with an ambient vibe, sounding incredibly beautiful throughout. A haunting string section envelops the listener as the piece progresses, with the violins tailing off on occasion to create a lovely crescendo. The little piano notes in the background mark Hannah’s music apart from her peers, creating a simple yet effective backbone to the piece. A must listen for classical fans.
