EspañolANNE DUDLEY
:''For the 18th century American poet née Anne Dudley, see Anne Bradstreet.''
'Anne Dudley' (born ) is an English orchestral composer and pop musician, and was the BBC Concert Orchestra's composer in Association between January 2002 and January 2005. She has worked in both the classical and pop genres. She is perhaps best known, however, as one of the seminal members of the synthpop band, Art of Noise.
Dudley was born in Chatham, Kent in 1956. Trained as a classical performer, Dudley then moved to the competitive commercial field as a session musician, where her professional relationship with Trevor Horn began. (In 1981 Dudley made significant contributions to the Horn produced ''Lexicon of Love'' album by ABC). She went from fleshing-out keyboard parts to scoring the album's orchestrations and even co-writing the song, "4 Ever 2 Gether".
Her pop arranging career has included work with groups such as The Pet Shop Boys and Frankie Goes to Hollywood and Lloyd Cole and the Commotions, whose ''Rattlesnakes'' album was an early standout effort. She has also co-written a 1930's inspired song with Sting called "This Was Never Meant To Be" in 1996, which is on his U.S. released Maxi Single entitled "I'm So Happy That I Can't Stop Crying". She was a founding member of Art of Noise, who helped pioneer the use of electronic and incidental music within the pop music context.
Dudley's music for film includes the powerful score for ''American History X'', ''Tristan & Isolde (film)'', as well as ''The Crying Game'' and ''Buster'', and in 1998 she won the "Best Original Musical or Comedy Score" Oscar for ''The Full Monty''. Her TV music includes scores for ''Kavanagh Q.C.'', ''Jeeves and Wooster'' and ''The Perfect Blue''.
She has also worked as a session musician for many clients. In 2004, she both scored and produced the album ''Voice'' for Alison Moyet (the two are neighbours).
