Described by Fanfare magazine as a “complete musician, totally adept and utterly stylish in everything she plays,” Anne Laver is active as concert organist, scholar, and pedagogue. She has performed in the United States, Europe, Scandinavia, and Africa and has been a featured recitalist at conventions of the American Guild of Organists, the Organ Historical Society, and the Göteborg International Organ Academy (Sweden). In 2010, she was awarded second prize in the AGO National Young Artist Competition in Organ Performance. Anne’s debut recording, “Reflections of Light” (Loft, 2019) has been aired on nationally syndicated radio programs, including WXXI FM’s With Heart and Voice and American Public Media’s Pipedreams. She will release a new album of solo and chamber music for organ by composer Natalie Draper on the Acis label in early 2026.
Anne is passionate about advocacy for the organ and the encouragement of young organists. In her appointment as Associate Professor of Organ and University Organist at Syracuse University’s Setnor School of Music, she helps educate the next generation of organists and church musicians. She has been able to involve students in many facets of her current projects, such as workshops for composers who want to write for the organ, scholarship around organ music at the nineteenth and twentieth century world’s fairs, and a new documentary film about organ culture in the United States.
