Presently, Mosher concentrates on performing early music and her own compositions on the harpsichord. Her four CD’s reflect this focus: two are of English Renaissance works, and two feature her compositions for harpsichord and other instruments. Mosher has improvised with Lindley and Wheeler in live performance, and is delighted to be part of this CD. Some of Mosher’s compositions have been performed at The Library of Congress, the Berkeley and Athena Festivals, and were recorded by noted harpsichordist Elaine Funaro ("Dances with Harpsichords"; Centaur). See www.NewMixMusic.com. Mosher studied at Manhattanville College and the University of Southern California for degrees in music history and piano. She holds a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Southern California Law School, and is a member of the California Bar A researcher/Reader at the Henry E. Huntington Library, San Marino, Mosher is the author of the book People and Their Contexts: A Chronology of the Sixteenth Century World. She has presented early music lectures and lecture-recitals, and written articles on Renaissance music for various journals. Long interested in contemporary music, Mosher is President of Piano Spheres Concerts (founded by Leonard Stein), a recital series presenting notable piano compositions of the 20th and 21st centuries.

His recordings have been released on the Fun Music, Artifact, TrancePort, Hypnos, and pfMentum labels.
