Laura Snowden

Described by Acoustic Guitar Magazine as possessing ‘‘multi-dimensional gifts, imagination and fearless artistic sensibility”, Laura’s eclectic musical output has ranged from playing guitar solos on Lorne Balfe’s soundtrack for Marvel film Black Widow to performing Lisa Streich’s guitar concerto with the BBC Symphony Orchestra.

Laura’s eclectic repertoire comprises classical, folk and contemporary music, with storytelling at its heart. Her programme will feature classical works alongside her own evocative compositions, unique vocalisations and Celtic folk arrangements.

Laura’s music has been performed at prestigious venues like Wigmore Hall and the Royal Albert Hall, broadcast on BBC Radio 3 and Classic FM, and recorded by labels including Decca and Delphian. Her compositions have been commissioned by major institutions such as Birmingham Symphony Hall and the New York Guitar Festival, and published by ABRSM, Hal Leonard, and London College of Music. Notably, her piece The Memory Garden was featured multiple times on BBC Radio 3 and is currently part of Apple Music’s Contemporary Classical Playlist.
