Musician and composer, born in Sauland, Telemark, in 1974. Lives in Oslo.

Anne Hytta is a creative and innovative Hardanger fiddle player who has developed a new approach to performance. Fiddlers Einar Løndal and Knut Buen have been important teachers and sources of inspiration in her playing. Hytta studied folk music at Telemark University College, and at the School for Instrumental Studies at Ole Bull Academy from 2000 to 2002. In addition to her activities as a Hardanger fiddle soloist, she performs with and writes music for the trio Slagr, which she herself founded, and which will release its debut recording in 2007. From 1997 to 2000 she was a member of the ensemble Aurora Borealis, which specialised in medieval music, and she has continued to play early music with the group Camelias Blancas (2006). She also plays in a duo with Norwegian-Iranian benju virtuoso Abdulrahman Surizehi. Together with Synnøve S. Bjørset and Åse Teigland, Hytte is currently working on a concert presentation for three Hardanger fiddle soloists, called Dei beste damene (“The Best Women”). In January 2007 she began a collaboration with an English and a French musician to form a trio, SYM, playing instruments with sympathetic strings. She composed and performed the commissioned work Fra Andalusia til Telemark – langs refrengets reiserute (“From Andalucia to Telemark – Following the Path of the Refrain”) at the Telemark Festival in 2004. In 2006 her first solo recording, Dag, kveld, natt (“Day, Evening, Night”), was released and won the Folkelarmprisen (Norwegian Folk Music Awards). Anne Hytta has received the Government Grant for Artists in 2006 and 2007.
