Strings in the Mountains would like to thank and
acknowledge the following people who came together to create Moguls to
Mozart as you see it:
The story was first told with Strings in the Mountains
in December of 1994 as Mozart's Magical Life and Music, a concert in the
Holiday series "Moguls to Mozart".
Created by "Strings" music director
Katherine Collier and further developed and narrated by noted story teller
Mirabai.
The musical illustrations were performed by:
Katherine Collier,
piano (that's a wig she's wearing... ); Andres Cardenes, 
violin ; Arturo Delmoni, 
violin ; Yizhak Schotten, 
viola ; Anne Martindale Williams, 
cello;
Eddie Daniels, 
clarinet; and Joe Williams, 
trombone.

cyberspace and expand our concert hall world wide.
