Classical chamber music recital by Patrick Hughes and Colette Valentine at the Bates Recital Hall.
Patrick Hughes and Colette Valentine bring their classical chamber music recital to Bates Recital Hall on Monday, September 28. It's a duo performance, so it'll be just the two of them on stage rather than a full ensemble.
Valentine is a classical pianist known for her collaborative chamber recordings, and a good part of her work focuses on the horn-piano repertoire—the kind of music written specifically for a horn and a piano playing together. That's the pairing you'll see here, with Hughes on horn and Valentine on piano.
If you're not familiar with the horn-piano combination, it's a distinct sound: the horn brings a warm, singing quality that sits right in the middle of the piano's range, and the two instruments tend to weave around each other rather than one just backing the other. It's a classic chamber music setup, and that's exactly what they're bringing to the Bates.
