Noëlle Mann is a musicologist. Curator of the Serge Prokofiev Archive at Goldsmiths, University of London from 1994 to 2006, she is also the General Editor of Three Oranges, a bi-annual journal dedicated to Prokofiev studies, and lectures in Russian music at the Goldsmiths Music Department. In the early 1990s she researched the Russian Orthodox Znamenny chant and the roots of the Russian 19th-Century art song, the Romance. In 1993 she founded the Kalina Choir, the first UK choir to explore exclusively the Russian choral repertoire. Since setting up the Prokofiev Archive in 1994, and the Centre for Russian Music in 1997, both at Goldsmiths, her research interests have gravitated towards the life and work of Prokofiev. She is frequently invited to contribute programme and sleeve notes and to deliver pre-concert talks on Russian music in general and on Prokofiev in particular. She is currently preparing an Anthology of Russian Sacred Music for Oxford University Press. [November 2006] Contact
