The simple glorious Bach of Angela Hewitt
Three English suites that I hardly knew spoke like great friends as they flowed from Angela’s mellifluous hands in a stream of pure gold.
Wonderful to see how the young winner of the one and only Glenn Gould competition accompanied in the early 80’s to play in Rome by her parents has matured into a unique figure.
In a bleak world of false news she is the bringer of hope and glory.
With a visit to the National just before …..a real much needed soul cleansing day.
I added to my basket at the Wigmore as at the National to treasure a bit longer.
