Maverick Concerts this Sunday features one of the great pianists of our age. Angela Hewitt, renowned for her definitive Bach recordings which she began in the 1990s, 27 albums of J S Bach alone, and every single note he ever wrote for the keyboard in her fingers. Bach’s city, the city of Leipzig, awarded her the Bach medal, she has Canada’s highest honor and Britain’s OBE as well as countless recording awards and honorary degrees: and here at Maverick she will be playing a program of Bach, of course, along with the French composers she is also renowned for and Schumann’s great opus 22.
She joins us to talk about Bach, how to play Bach, opening up emotionally, and the unifying theme behind this coming program
