Lynne Bulmer graduated from Sheffield University in 1981 with a BMus (Hons), having studied flute with Paul Chapman (Opera North) while playing in the Sheffield Chamber Orchestra for a number of years.  After some time away from the flute, she returned to playing in the mid-90s, studying with Stina Bisengaliev, David Nicholson and Paul Edmund-Davies, and teaching flute and piano privately in the Scottish Highlands.  In 2004, she was awarded the Fellowship of the Royal Schools of Music diploma, and, in 2005, successfully completed a Master of Arts in Music degree (with distinction) with the Open University.  Following her move to Edinburgh in 2011, Lynne is now a freelance performer, soloist and teacher.

Peter Churchill studied piano and double bass as a junior exhibitioner at the Royal College of Music before taking a music degree at Oxford University, as an organ scholar. In the mid 1990s after a few years working in church music, Peter became self-employed as a community musician.  Based in Birmingham, he runs workshops and delivers arts projects in a variety of settings, including mainstream and special schools, nurseries, hospitals and psychiatric clinics.  He is currently Musical Director of Choir With No Name (Birmingham) – a choir made up of people whose lives have been affected by homelessness. He enjoys a wide variety of musical styles and genres and works with music technology, as well as conventional instrumentation.
