Award-winning cellist Regina Mushabac will join St. Olaf Professor of Music Nancy Paddleford, piano, for a recital Tuesday, Feb. 14, at 8:15 p.m. in Urness Recital Hall at St. Olaf.

The program includes the Adagio from Toccata in C Major for Organ by J.S. Bach and Mushabac's own transcription of a sonata by Franz Schubert.

Mushabac, professor of cello at the Baldwin-Wallace College Conservatory of Music (Cleveland), is the winner of the Concert Artists Guild Award and numerous other competitions. She has given highly acclaimed performances in Europe, Central America, South America and throughout the United States, and she has studied under some of the world's most distinguished cellists.

Paddleford, a member of the St. Olaf Department of Music since 1974, earned her bachelor's and master's of music degrees from Indiana University, and her doctor of musical arts degree from the University of Minnesota. She has served as artist in residence at the University of Costa Rica and is the recipient of the Pro Lingua Award for promoting cross-cultural understanding between the United States and Latin America.
