about

Emily Linane   b.1999

she/her

A Guernsey-born composer based in London. Emily is currently studying composition under the tuition of Stephen Montague, Paul Newland and Edward Jessen and Matt Roberts at Trinity Laban Conservatoire. She is currently supported by Trinity College London, Havilland Willshire and Gareth Neame Scholarships respectfully and is grateful for their support. In 2021, Emily graduated from The University of York with a first-class degree in Music which was where she was influenced by Stef Conner. As a fond improviser herself, Emily likes to feature improvisatory elements within her work that create space for the players to explore. Manipulating, abstracting, and distorting folk elements and old musical ideas and structures are forms that she wishes to continue to develop in her works.

Emily continues to enjoy singing alongside her craft, under the tutelage of Patricia Rosario, and sings with the Improvesarios - an improvised opera group. She currently enjoys playing in Trinity Laban's Saxophone Choir. Equality and accessibility within music education are important to Emily and she is proud to be a Creative Ambassador with The Benedetti Foundation to be able to be a trailblazer in this field.
