Adding an additional personal touch to their music, the duo often writes and arranges (Sanna Andersson) their own compositions.

In collaboration with Icelandic composer and conductor Gísli Jóhann Grétarsson, Anna has written various works for En Vokalist & En Cellist, whom has premiered the music in Helsinki, Paris and Reykjavik to name a few.
