Regional Spotlight: Julia Bogorad-Kogan
by Steve Staruch, Minnesota Public Radio
June 7, 2010
St. Paul, Minn. — Slow and mournful and otherworldly, Claude Debussy's "Syrinx" recounts the story of Pan and his passion for the beautiful nymph Syrinx.
Trying to escape Pan's advances Syrinx begged the gods for help.

Julia Bogorad-Kogan, Principal Flute of the SPCO, performs this haunting work in this week's Regional Spotlight.
