Mozart: Piano Concertos, Angela Hewitt
After brilliantly tackling the world of J.S. Bach, Hewitt turns her considerable talent to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. If this new recording is any indication then the classical record buying public is in for a treat. Hewitt plays with a beautiful touch; she never bludgeons the listener with her playing. She is one of those rare musicians who can convey a feeling of strength and sensuality in the music at the same time. The early piano concertos of Mozart would be unfamiliar to a lot of classical music lovers but there is no doubt, these are works that should be on all music lovers’ CD shelves. Highly recommended.
