Bios of the artists:
After studies in Paris, flutist Angela Koregelos made her debut at London's Wigmore Hall to critical acclaim. She was principal flutist of the Oakland Symphony for thirteen years and has performed frequently with the San Francisco Opera Orchestra. She presents recitals and masterclasses in the US, Mexico and Europe, and teaches at Mills College. She has made several solo CDs as well as recordings for television and film, and selections from her recording "Myths and Legends" were recently featured in Sony's Share the Music school program.

Belle Bulwinkle enjoys performing on both early and modern pianos. She gave a solo fortepiano recital at the Antverpiano '91 Festival in Belgium, and has played a 19th-century piano at the Santa Rosa Symphony Summer Festival. She has appeared as a fortepianist in concerts at The Cascade Head (OR) Festival, UC Santa Cruz, Old First Church (SF) Chattanooga Chamber Concerts, MusicSources, Mills College, Palomar College, Hausmusik and Cornell University. Lou Harrison's "Concerto for Piano and Javanese Gamelan" is dedicated to her, and she premiered this work at Mills, followed by a second performance at the Cabrillo Festival in 1987. She has also premiered new music by international composers Jack Body, Marcello Panni and Anthony Payne. Her recording of the Harrison concerto has been released by Leonardo. A CD of songs of Darius Milhaud is on the Music & Arts label. Ms. Bulwinkle is currently on the performance faculty at Mills where she frequently appears in concert. She has taught music history and theory at Mills and at the California College of Arts and Crafts.
