Review of Both Volumes from Ronald Legum at Audiophile Audition
This is an equally dazzling display of the Hyperion multichannel recording technique and the musicianship of the marvelous pianist, Angela Hewitt. The seven Bach Keyboard Concertos date from the composer's final years as director of the Collegium Musicum in Leipzig. Several of them are reworkings of violin and oboe concertos. Concerto movements also were used by Bach in several cantatas. Despite apparent redundancy, this music is as inventive, exuberant and masterfully wrought as The Brandenburg Concertos composed ten years earlier.
Born in Ottawa, Angela Hewitt in 1985 won the Toronto International Bach Piano Competition in memory of Glenn Gould. She is a most worthy bearer of the Gould legacy. Hewitt provides a full measure of Bach's unique outpouring of joy and solemnity. Achieving an ideal balance of emotion and scholarship, the overall effect of her playing is stunning. Her tone is crystalline, partnering ideally with the delicacy of her ornamentation.
The ACO, led from the violin by Richard Tognetti, includes 17 string players and one harpsichordist. They are joined by two flautists on loan from the Scottish Chamber and Sidney Symphony Orchestras. This responsive, finely tuned group makes music as one with Angela Hewitt. Recorded in Verbugghen Hall at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music in February 2005, the act of listening to these Bach keyboard works approaches rapture. Counterpoint has rarely been so clearly articulated, instrumental focus and balance seldom so naturally rendered. The multichannel format literally surrounds the listener with Bach's music.
Hyperion engineers have done Angela Hewitt, the ACO and, above all, J. S. Bach fine service. Essential music, exceptionally performed and recorded. A must!

I would strongly - very strongly - urge people who do not own this recording already to purchase a legitimate copy of it on CD if they intend to keep the SACD versions. Hyperion is an independent label in England with a long record of superlative releases, and they deserve your support. This SACD ISO set is being put here because it is increasingly difficult to find Hyperion has this album available as a regular CD, and also makes FLACs available, click here for more information.
For those interested, Hyperion also offers many of their newer recordings as 24-bit downloads - there is a handy list of them here. If you're interested in a free sampler of this month's releases, you can click here.
Of course, some of you may want an even greater bargain. Fortunately, Hyperion has one for you - the 15 CDs of Angela Hewitt's recordings of Bach's keyboard works are available from Hyperion as a box set at the bargain price of GBP 50. No excuse not to pick it up if you enjoy this album. Link to product page on Hyperion's website. Their international shipping is also quite reasonable.
