Anna Linh Nguyen Berg (1992) is a Norwegian Vietnamese composer from Kolbotn, Norway, based in Paris and Oslo. 


Berg has a Bachelor’s degree in composition from The Norwegian Academy of Music (2017-2021), and a Master’s degree in composition from The Norwegian Academy of Music and Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris (2021-2023). 


In her catalogue, you can find works for a wide range of ensembles such as symphony orchestra, string orchestra, sinfonietta and choir, in addition to works for chamber constellations such as string quartets and trios.

She also creates music for film and dance, and has created the score for the film DREAMS by reknown Norwegian director Dag Johan Haugerud.


Berg’s works are performed regularly at concerts and festivals in Norway, the Nordic countries and Europe, among them at Ultima, Festspillene i Bergen, Arctic Chamber Music Festival, International Rostrum of Composers, Norland Musikkfestuke and Ung Nordisk Musikk. 


Her works have been performed by prominent musicians and ensembles, such as Pekka Kuusisto and the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra, Guro Kleven Hagen, Amalie Stalheim, Eivind Ringstad, The Norwegian Soloists’ Choir, Arctic Philharmonic, Ensemble Allegria and Ensemble Ernst. 


Berg’s music has timbre and elegance as central themes. She wants each of her pieces to create their own language and is concerned with how structure, form and layers in music impact the listener’s perception of the whole.

In 2019, Berg founded Ensemble 3030, a contemporary music ensemble based in Oslo.

She is a member of The Norwegian Society of Composers, Norsk komponistforening and Syndicat français des compositrices et compositeurs de musique contemporaine.
