Biography
A native of Inverness, Scotland, Claire M Singer is a composer and performer of acoustic and electronic music, films and installations. Renowned for her experimental approach to the organ, her work draws its inspiration from the grandiose landscapes of her native land. She explores rich, complex harmonic textures that create ever-changing melodic and rhythmic patterns, disappearing almost as soon as they appear. She has performed at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, Glasgow Cathedral, the Tate Modern, the Westerkerk (opening for Low) and the Barbican Centre (opening for Stars of the Lid). Awarded the Oram Prize (2017) and the Peralada Film Festival Prize for the music of Tell It to the Bees (2019), Claire M Singer has released on the Touch label the albums Solas (2016), Fairge (2017), Saor (2023) and Gleann Ciùin (2025), a work commissioned by the London Contemporary Orchestra and nominated for an Ivor Novello Award. Organ director since 2012 at Union Chapel, a concert hall in Islington, north London, Claire M Singer has collaborated with Chris Watson and The Eternal Chord. In 2016, she founded Organ Reframed, the only one of its kind in the UK, a festival dedicated to commissioning and presenting innovative experimental music that reinvents the organ for artist and audience alike. Her commissions include works by Ãliane Radigue, Low, Hildur Guðnadóttir and Adam Bryanbaum Wiltzie.
