Event Description
Angela Hewitt occupies a unique position among today’s leading pianists.
With a wide-ranging repertoire and frequent appearances in recital and
with major orchestras throughout Europe, Americas and Asia, she is also
an award-winning recording artist whose performances of Bach have
established her as one of the composer’s foremost interpreters.
The Canadian pianist, recipient of the Wigmore Hall Gold Medal, made
her début at the Hall over 40 years ago and has given well over 80
performances since.
On the occasion of her Wigmore Series Dublin début, this charismatic
pianist performs Ravel’s luminous Le Tombeau de Couperin alongside
works by François Couperin, Mozart and the composer with whom she is
most synonymous – JS Bach.
