Beth Anderson's music has been described as having "a refreshing simplicity without naiveté" and as - "deeply felt, direct, and yes, beautiful" and "charming and deeply felt to the point of romanticism." Her latest CDs are a new recording by Nancy Boston of September Swale as part of American Women: Modern Voices in Piano Music and Quilt Music (Albany Records), a CD of chamber music for smaller ensembles. An essay by Ms. Anderson about her music for American Music Center's NewMusicBox web magazine can be read at http://www.newmusicbox.org/page.nmbx?id=53hf02.
