Roxanna Panufnik FRAM, GRSM(hons), LRAM (b.1968) is one of the most versatile and beloved British composers working today. She studied composition at the Royal Academy of Music and since then has written works for opera, ballet, choirs, orchestras and chamber music as well as for film and television that are seen and heard around the world. She is probably best-known for her ‘Coronation Sanctus’ commissioned by King Charles III for his Coronation service. Thanks to her hybrid heritage, she has a great love of music from a variety of cultures and different faiths. Her mission to build musical bridges between the three Abrahamic faiths has resulted in commissions from The World Orchestra for Peace in Jerusalem and the BBC Last Night of the Proms.
 
In 2021, she was awarded the Gloria Artis Merit to Culture Bronze Medal (from the Polish Minister of Culture, National Heritage and Sport) and in 2023 a Coronation Medal by the UK Nation for her services to the Coronation.  She is a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Music and in 2024 Roxanna received the Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Works Collection. 

Her works are published by Peters Edition Ltd/Wise Music Classical and recorded on many labels including Signum, Decca, Warner Classics, Chandos, and EMI Classics.
