In 1985 Ann signed with EMI who took the unprecedented step of launching a new artist with ten LP’s. Ten more followed shortly after and then the series was transferred to cassette. Today Ann’s 24 successful albums are available as CD and downloads and have won praise and endorsement from world famous conductors and musicians. Her insistence on quality orchestral performances, particularly for her younger audiences, has guaranteed her a place of honour in the world of classical music recordings.

As an author, Ann Rachlin’s first book “Sinbad and the Wizard Eagle and other stories” was published by Corgi. Gollancz published her “Famous Children” series of ten books which were translated into seventeen languages and are still popular with children all over the world.

Published in 2011, EDY WAS A LADY is Ann’s biography of Ellen Terry’s only daughter, Edith Craig, including her lost memoirs.

Ann also contributed a section in SEVEN CHOICES, Elizabeth Harper Neeld’s invaluable guide to bereavement, where Ann passed on her own experience and advice to others who are newly-bereaved on how certain pieces of classical music had helped her cope with grief and loss.

Why Fun with Music®™ is so unique?

Ann’s special technique has been compared to a ‘Concerto for Voice and Orchestra’, as she skillfully blends music and narration in a perfect match of mood and pitch, tempo and rhythm that entrances her audiences. She stimulates the imagination so that listeners of all ages find themselves “seeing with their ears”!

To introduce the love of great music to children internationally, Ann creates and writes all her own material, having first researched in great depth to unearth true facts guaranteed to appeal to her young listeners. It is her intimate knowledge of the masterpieces she performs that makes her so popular with audiences globally. This is why she has performed at countless international music festivals and appeared with major symphony orchestras in the UK, USA and Australia
