Composer Betty Beath on Women in Music: “Louise and Christa…I think your interpretation of the Encounters pieces was outstanding. The energy and vitality you brought to “Let’s Dance” was terrific…I loved it and, of course, the warmth of tone and phrasing in “A Loving Embrace” captured what I had hoped was there in the work. Thank-you so much… So good to see you working together presenting seldom heard works…”
