Annelies Van Parys (b. 1975) is one of Belgium’s most prominent composers, having earned acclaim for both orchestral compositions and solo and chamber works.

Her music has been played in a wide range of European concert halls, including the Palau de la Música Catalana, the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, the Wiener Musikverein, the Barbican Centre, Den Norske Opera & Ballett (Bergen), the Deutsche Oper Berlin, Staatsoper Unter den Linden (Berlin), Theater an der Wien, and the Royal Opera House, London. Her many prizes and awards include the Fedora–Rolf Liebermann Prize for Opera.
