Programme
Overview
Angela Hewitt returns to the fortepiano in an extraordinary partnership with the Dunedin Consort. Journey from the stormy passions of a mid-1740s concerto to the tender intimacy of Mozart’s keyboard writing. Experience period performance at its finest.In an evening that marries tempestuous Baroque fervour with Classical elegance, acclaimed pianist Angela Hewitt makes her fortepiano return in partnership with the Dunedin Consort. The programme opens with a mid-1740s concerto whose restless harmonies and sweeping gestures evoke the raw drama of the era, before yielding to Mozart’s understated masterpiece, where whispered dialogues between piano and ensemble reveal the subtlest of nuances. Hewitt’s ‘wonderfully controlled expressive focus’ guides every phrase, while the period strings of the Dunedin Consort lend warmth and clarity to the ensemble’s rich textures. From the rumbling depths of the first work to the luminous lyricism of Mozart’s writing, the concert promises a journey through emotion and time, illuminated by the crystalline voice of the fortepiano.
