AN EVENING OF HORN AND
PIANO
Saturday, December 27, 2003, 7:30 pm
Performed by Aimee Beaulieu and Erika le Roux

St.
Augustine's concert series started off with an ambitious program of music
for French horn and piano. Aimee Beaulieu, who came to Germany to pursue
graduate studies at the Peter-Cornelius-Konservatorium in Mainz in summer of
2003, made her European concert debut with world-class pianist Erika le
Roux. The duo performed Richard Strauss' Concerto No. 1 in E-flat major,
Franz Strauss' Nocturno for Horn Op. 7, and Beethoven's Sonata for Piano and
Horn Op. 17. The program was rounded off by two sets of compositions for
solo piano by Chopin and Schubert.
It was a superb performance, with Aimee's clear high notes in the (R.)
Strauss soaring over the lovely candlelight setting on the "third day of
Christmas".
