Goldenflute performs Bach to Jazz at the Redlands Bowl.

Music from "Bach to Jazz" will fill the Redlands Bowl on Tuesday, July 31, at 8:15 p.m. when Goldenflute Chamber Trio performs for the Redlands Bowl Summer Music Festival. The Spokane, Washington, based trio, with flute, piano, and cello, will present a lively history of music from
17th century works to contemporary American folk and jazz music. "I like to think of it as a small orchestra," touts Rhonda

Bradetich, flutist in the ensemble. "We have a string instrument, a wind instrument, and a percussion instrument--the piano, which also fills out
the harmony." Bradetich refers to the program as a Musical Journey through Time. "It's also what other people refer to as crossover music in that it
contains works from many different genres," she explains. The trio will perform Baroque and Classical pieces by JS Bach and Franz Haydn, Romantic favorites by Rachmaninoff, contemporary French works by Debussy and Jean-Michele Damase, Ragtime by the great Scott Poplin, and jazz by French jazz composer Claude Bolling.

Bradetich says that many of the arrangements of favorites such as Debussy's "Clair de Lune" and Rachmaninoff's "Vocalise" are done by the trio itself.

"I have been touring this program in various incarnations for the past eleven years and find it to be interesting and enjoyable fun for all ages," says Bradetich. According to Bradetich, the group formed as a logical extension of a flute and piano duo, with her on flute and Stefanie Kowalski on piano. Kowalski and Bradetich had been touring the United States for six years and decided to expand the group by adding a cello to fill in the lower voicing. They unanimously agreed on Cheryl Carney, a fellow Spokane-area musician. Idaho native Bradetich has won many awards and has soloed with the Spokane Symphony Orchestra and the North Idaho Symphony Orchestra, and has performed with the Sun Valley Summer Symphony and the Boise Philharmonic
and has been featured on the PBS television program "Palouse Performances". She has appeared regularly in the Festival at Sandpoint's Chamber Music Series where she studied with Pulitzer Prize winner Gunther Schuller.

Pianist Stefanie Kowalski received her Master's degree from the Eastman School of Music, and she currently resides in Spokane, teaching at Whitworth College and accompanying the Spokane Opera Company and the
Spokane Area Children's Chorus. She has performed in master classes led by artists Yo-Yo Ma, Malcolm Bilson, and Sanford Sylvan. A member of the Spokane Symphony, cellist Cheryl Carney also performs as the principal cellist for the Northwest Bach Festival and the Westminster Chamber Orchestra, and she is a member of the Spokane Opera. This concert is co-sponsored by Hartnell, Horspool & Fox, a Professional Law Corporation.

The intermission speaker will be Janet M. Weder, Secretary, Redlands Community Music Association, Inc., and the intermission ushers will be members of Redlands Zonta Club and the Youth Services Resource Center for the American Red Cross, Inland Empire Chapter. Curtiss Allen, Sr. will lead the Community Sing beginning at 7:20 p.m. The Children's Festival Workshop will be presented by Rhonda Bradetich of Goldenflute at 3:00 p.m. at the First Congregational Church, 2 W. Olive Ave., in Redlands.
