Wigmore Hall 125: Angela Hewitt

As part of Wigmore Hall’s 125th Anniversary Festival, Canadian pianist Angela Hewitt plays Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Haydn and Bach.

In this celebratory concert, she turns her refined artistry to the joy and wonder of works from the heart of her repertoire, crowned with the awe-inspiring expressive shifts of Bach’s Second Partita.
