Annelie Koning is a Dutch experimental vocalist and composer. In June 2017 she graduated from the ArtEZ conservatory in Arnhem (direction Jazz & Pop).
In her work Annelie Koning combines composed parts with improvisation in which she continuously explores the possibilities of her voice.
She studied jazz singing with Jolande Geven, Ineke van Doorn en Simin Tander, classical singing with Elena Vink and she had lessons in improvisation with WIlbert de Joode and Wolter Wierbos.
In 2015 she formed the band LILLY KING in which she combines Dutch-language compositions with improvisation. The songs have a poetic character and organic structure which will carry the listener away from the here and now.
