Heloise Degrugillier has worked extensively as both a recorder performer and teacher throughout Europe and the United States. She has performed with leading period ensembles, including the Boston Early Music Festival Opera, Newport Baroque, Harmonious Blacksmith, and the Dunya Ensemble. Recent performances included concerts with Mercury Baroque in Houston, Texas, and a concert at the Indianapolis Early Music festival that was praised by the Indianapolis Nuvo - "Recorder players Justin Godoy and Heloise Degrugillier blended their dissimilar-looking instruments to near perfection." Heloise also enjoys an active teaching career, working with the Amherst Early Music Festival, Boston Recorder Society, Recorder Guild of New York, Pinewoods Early Music Week, and others. She has recently completed her studies in the Alexander Technique and has a Masters in Music from the Utrecht Conservatory in the Netherlands.
