Notes:
Anđelka Bego-Šimunić was a Bosnian-Herzegovinian composer of Croatian descent. She taught at the Sarajevo Music Academy, was president of the Bosnian composers’ association (1986–1992) and one of the principal organizers of the Days of Musical Creation festival.
Her music is mostly neo-classical in style, influenced by Sergei Prokofiev's extended tonality and treatment of form, with elements of neo-romanticism, particularly in the style of Franz Liszt, and early Expressionism. Her works occasionally refer to Bosnian folklore.
