Mozart: Piano Sonatas K279-284 & 309

£20.99

‘Endless hours of joy and wonder’ is how Angela Hewitt sums up the insights and rewards of playing and recording Mozart’s piano sonatas, and a similar experience awaits listeners to these remarkable accounts, the first release in a complete cycle.

Classical fans rejoice—this double album is the first release in a planned complete cycle of Mozart piano sonatas by Angela Hewitt, and if they’re all as good as this one, we are in for a real treat. Hewitt is on sparkling form, with every note crystal clear thanks to her precise—yet clearly much-enjoyed playing—while she makes the whole thing sound entirely effortless. The quality of the performance is enhanced by Ludger Böckenhoff’s fine recording in the Kulturstiftung Marienmünster, Germany, making Hewitt’s Fazioli piano sound suitably luminous and fabulous.
