This is very special. All of Angela Hewitt's Bach recordings to date have been made in Germany on her favourite piano and with her chosen producer, Ludger Böckenhoff. For this recording of the Goldbergs, a work for which she has especial reverence, Angela inspected several venues in Britain. Accordingly she and Ludger, the piano and piano technician Gerd Finkenstein, travelled from Germany to London's Henry Wood Hall where no fewer than five days were allocated to record the work. Finally satisfied artistically, Angela finished the recording at the end of the fifth day, after which she went home for a bath and something to eat. Everybody then went back to HWH in the middle of the night and recorded the whole thing again, without a break. After a few final adjustments in the editing room, that is the performance which appears on this disc. All repeats are observed. »Outstanding ... Hewitt's disc, exquisite artistry commingling with infectious exhilaration gives me the most pleasure« (BBC Music Magazine) »Beautifully co-ordinated Bach playing, with all voices colourfully defined and spontaneity as a constant virtue. In my view, she has never made a better CD. Strongly recommended« (Gramophone) »This is as fine a version of Bach's inventive Goldberg Variations as there is« (The Express) »The most recent in a series of wonderfully compelling Bach recordings by pianist Angela Hewitt. She seems to do everything right ... simply one of the best piano versions available« (Fanfare, USA) Scala 4 / 00: »Hewitts Bach-Kompetenz zeigt sich vor allem in ihrer Fähigkeit, jedem Stück des Zyklus einen eigenen Charakter abzugewinnen, also auch die wechselnden Stimmungen, unterschiedlichen Klangmuster und die differenzierten Farbabstufungen, die Bach der fast immer vorherrschenden Grundtonart G-Dur abtrotzte, plastisch und suggestiv herauszuarbeiten, so daß trotz der Wiederholungen nirgends ein Eindruck eines musikalischen Stillstandes entsteht.« (Quelle: www.jpc.de)
