Hyperion Mozart: Piano Sonatas K. 310-311 & 330-333

Angela Hewitt's voyage of discovery through Mozart's piano sonatas is proving a joy. The works sounding newly minted in vital, alert accounts which respect their scale and sensibility while revealing influences of Mozart's orchestral and concerto writing of the period. CRITICAL ACCLAIM: "it is hard to imagine a more joyous and appropriately raucous performance of the famous alla turca finale of K331 or a greater sense of fun in the closing movements of K311 and K332. Where the music is wistful or the harmonies haunting, she finds a special touch without calling undue attention to it." International Piano BBC MUSIC MAGAZINE INSTRUMENTAL CHOICE, NOVEMEBER 2023 The Canadian pianist [plays] on one of her beloved Fazioli pianos with the sort of nimble and sensitive articulation that brings this music to life. [] and excellent recital that yields rewards on every listen."
