Music blog Keret wrote about it: “Vocals progressing from eerily dark sounds, balanced by feminine softness: the time stops for a moment when we wander around Anna’s head.". MA’AM also works on theatre and dance performances, as a composer she worked with Viktor Szeri (Hungarian contemporary dancer) on work Blackheads. She collaborates with many artists of the Hungarian experimental and improvisation scene. She has also led Ableton workshops (voice techniques and production) at LAB / ON in Cologne.
