California Chronicle: Boise’s Robin Zimmermann heads to Sundance: This classically trained pianist is turning her talents to film scoring

Robin Zimmermann has quietly been making inroads into Boiseâ??s music scene for years; so quietly — as is her nature — that her name is still unfamiliar to many of her peers. Zimmermann started her musical journey as a child, at the Wausau Conservatory of Music in Wisconsin, where she grew up. She focused on piano and by the time she reached the University of Wisconsin, Madison, she had burned out on the black and white keys, she says. So, she turned to voice and flute.
