Angela Hewitt

Summer Series 2006, Concert 6
Saturday June 10th at 7.45 pm

Angela Hewitt, piano

Angela Hewitt is a phenomenal artist who has established herself at the highest level through her superb performances and award-winning recordings. Her ten-year project to record all the major keyboard works of Bach has been described as "one of the record glories of our age" and has won her a huge following. She has been hailed as "the pre-eminent Bach pianist of our time" The Guardian

"It was a positive sensation. The Canadian pianist is one of the reliably mesmerising musicians of the day. You sit entranced ... it would have been more accurate to say I was floating just below the ceiling. She seems to me the complete performer, gifted not only with fingers that imprint each note with a svelte newness and a mind that is not deflected by such precision work from calmly surmising the larger structure, but also with the ability to convey a spiritual seriousness that nonetheless does not exclude an utter charm." The Sunday Times
