Na de zonnige seizoenopening met Klassiek op de Brink vervolgen we ons 10e concertseizoen in Kerk aan Zee te Muiderberg.
Andrew West vervangt Catherine Beynon
Tot onze grote spijt heeft harpiste Catherine Beynon op het allerlaatste wegens ziekte moeten afzeggen.
Gelukkig bood fluitiste Emily Beynon een oplossing door een programma voor te stellen met een andere duo-partner, de pianist Andrew West die speciaal voor dit concert uit Engeland werd ingevlogen. Voor ons een bekende combinatie die in oktober 2018 zorgde voor een onvergetelijk concert in de Kerk aan Zee. Het alternatieve programma voor zondag bevatte werk van Prokofiev, Debussy, Barber en Poulenc.

She is a Fellow and Visiting Professor at the Royal Academy of Music.
Catherine Beynon – harp
Catherine began studying the harp at the age of eight with Daphne Boden and was a scholar at the junior department of the Royal College of Music and later the Royal Academy of music in London. She completed her studies with Fabrice Pierre at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Lyon.
Professional highlights have included performing at the BBC chamber music Proms, concerts with the Luzern Festival orchestra in Luzern and Vienna under Claudio Abbado, the concerts in Germany and the Carnegie Hall with the Bayerische Rundfunk symphony orchestra under Mariss Jansons, and a Grammy nominated concerto recording with her sister Emily, Vladimir Ashkenazy and the Philharmonia Orchestra.
In 1999, Catherine was appointed principal harp of the Royal Opera in Copenhagen (Det Kongelige Kapel), a post which she held until 2003 when she was appointed solo harp of the Orchestre Philharmonique du Luxembourg, her current post.
