Kristina studied at London’s Purcell School, the Royal Academy of Music, the University of Oxford and King’s College, London. She began writing for professional ensembles in her mid-teens and has since reached audiences worldwide with her compositions. Kristina won the BBC Young Composer competition in 2010 and has received commissions from the BBC Proms, the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, BBC Radio 3, the Royal Albert Hall, St Paul’s Cathedral, Anna Lapwood, the National Youth Choir of Great Britain, and the BBC Singers.
