Pianist Angela Hewitt, who agreed to be the Honorary Patron of Music for Young Children in 2000, continues to captivate and charm audiences around the world with her musicianship and virtuosity. Since her triumph in the 1985 Toronto International Bach Piano Competition, Miss Hewitt has been hailed as "the pre-eminent Bach pianist of our time" (The Guardian, London, 2001). In 1994, she embarked on a ten-year project to record all of the major keyboard works by Bach for the Hyperion label, a series which has been called "one of the record glories of our age" by London's Sunday Times. Her disc of Bach Arrangements won a Juno Award in Canada for the Best Instrumental or Chamber CD of 2001. During the year 2000, she gave complete performances of the 48 Preludes and Fugues in Canada, the United States, England, and Germany. She has performed throughout North America and Europe, as well as in Japan, Australia, China, Mexico, and the former Soviet Union. Born into a musical family (her father was the Cathedral organist in Ottawa, Canada), Miss Hewitt began her piano studies at the age of three, performing in public at four, and a year later winning her first scholarship. She also studied violin, recorder, singing, and classical ballet. At nine, she gave her first recital at Toronto's Royal Conservatory of Music where she studied from 1964-73. Miss Hewitt then studied with French pianist, Jean-Paul Sevilla, at the University of Ottawa from which she earned her Bachelor of Music degree at the age of 18.

The Shepherd University Department of Music has earned a reputation for a strong commitment to excellence, a commitment shared by the Friends of Music, a collection of business men and women as well as members and leaders of the community. The Shepherd University Wind Ensemble’s commitment to excellence was recently recognized with a coveted invitation to perform in America’s greatest concert venue, Carnegie Hall in New York City. Last year’s incredibly successful YEAR OF THE PIANO has made it possible to bring two of the world’s finest pianists to Shepherdstown to play our Frank Arts Center, the very same week that they perform at Carnegie in New York. Therefore, 2005 is our CARNEGIE CONNECTION, where we take the best of Shepherdstown to Carnegie and bring the best of Carnegie to Shepherdstown. And you can be a part! Carnegie Connection Andrew Carnegie, a powerful businessman and a leading force in the American steel industry, is remembered as an industrialist, millionaire, and philanthropist. Carnegie believed that the wealthy had an obligation to give back to society, so he donated much of his fortune to causes like education. Andrew Carnegie’s mission lives on in the thousands of libraries, universities and cultural institutions that his wealth has made possible. Shepherd goes to Carnegie Hall One of Andrew Carnegie’s cultural endowments is the famed Carnegie Concert Hall in New York City. Having received a coveted invitation to perform on the Carnegie Hall concert stage, the Shepherd University Wind Ensemble will be heading to New York in April. Join the Friends of Music and the Wind Ensemble on a bus trip to hear the group perform at Carnegie Hall on April 24th. For those unable to attend, the program will be repeated at the Frank Center for the Arts later that same week.

Catching up with Angela Hewitt Ottawa's favourite pianist on sabbatical . . . but not for long Musical Musings Angela Hewitt (photo: Karen Robinson) Angela Hewitt is on sabbatical. It's only a four-month sabbatical and is being interrupted now and then by recording sessions and three concerts. (She would normally do close to thirty in the same period.) It definitely represents some time out for her, though, time in which she can atttend to her musical, business and personal concerns in relative peace. Last month I spent an hour with her over a drink and a bite to eat. She is such a delightful conversationalist that I would have enjoyed the meeting if we'd only talked about the weather. Instead, we began by talking about her new house in Italy. Recently completed, and now the home of her new nine-foot Fazioli piano, it is on a hillside overlooking Perugia, the capital of the Umbria Region. "The place in Italy has turned out fantastically," she says, adding that one of its advantages is that it makes it feasible to transport her piano to recording sessions in Germany and elsewhere, and to major concerts as well. "I'm using it mostly on the continent, but I think I'm going to take it to London with me for my debut recital in Royal Festival Hall."

UPDATED EVERY THURSDAY Thursday 11th March 2004 REVIEWS BY JOEL TAYLOR Angela Hewitt puts more of herself into the music of Couperin I ONCE saw pianist Angela Hewitt perform at Hampstead Town Hall, playing Bach toccatas and fugues, and she came under a little criticism for her romantic interpretation of the pieces. The revival of early music and the urge to play on original instruments is clearly not a high priority for Ms Hewitt. She has always preferred to instill greater personality and more of herself in the music. Criticisms of her interpretation would be misplaced as she delivers a wonderful master class in the playing of baroque music. Hewitt uses ritardando, and other techniques more associated with romanticism, to add greater poise and the record is a delight to listen to. It may not please the traditionalists, but there is no doubt that Hewitt follows in the vein of performers like the late Glenn Gould, and is one of the leading performers of music of this period. Previews CONWAY Hall is playing host to one of the most exciting young string quartets currently performing across the world on Sunday.

UPDATED EVERY THURSDAY Thursday 26th August 2004 REVIEWS BY JOEL TAYLOR Angela Hewitt Angela Hewitt - Bach: Fantasia and fugue in a minor and other works (Hyperion Records) THROUGH winning the Toronto International Bach Piano Competition in 1985, heavy recording sessions and extensive touring throughout the world, Canadian pianist Angela Hewitt has become one of the most respected interpreters of Bach. She does not use a harpsichord, for which the pieces were written, and sticks to playing a Steinway, inevitably injecting more dynamic contrasts than are available on a harpsichord. Recorded at the Henry Wood Hall earlier this year, Ms Hewitt created a startlingly elegant and crisp record. There is none of the humming which characterised the work of that other great Bach interpreter, Glenn Gould. And her style is very controlled, fingering precise and timing immaculate.

So it was that on Monday evening at 8:30 pm, at the Hyatt Regency in Monterey, pianist Angela Hewitt stepped into the limelight and presented a program for a packed house of works by Bach, Mozart, Messiaen and Liszt. It has often been said that at a piano recital you can tell in the first ten seconds whether the artist's attitude is "I am a concert pianist and I am going to amaze you with my virtuoso technique" or rather "I love these pieces and I want to share them with you." It was the latter attitude that dominated the evening and contributed so much to its success. The opening work was Bach's Concerto in the Italian Style . You might wonder what an artist can possibly find new to say in such a well-known and venerable masterpiece. But, something new Ms. Hewitt did find, and what it was is a very personal and individual expressivity that is not afraid to interrupt the motoric flow of the work's first movement with subtle agogic delays or

Home Content Articles La Scena Musicale ... Search La Scena Musicale - Vol. 2, No. 8 May 1997 Parker Piano Preview Martin Kamela May 1, 1997 I n 1984 young Japanese-Canadian pianist Jon Kimura Parker shot into the spotlight taking the top prize at the Leeds International Piano Competition in Britain. As a laureate of the Leeds Competition he joined the impressive fraternity of past winners which includes Radu Lupu and Murray Perahia. I first heard Parker live about ten years ago in concert with the Edmonton Symphony at the Jubilee Auditorium. Parker has a virile stage presence that immediately commands attention. His performance of Prokofiev's daunting Piano Concerto No 3 was unforgettable. With a rich, round piano tone he communicated both the lyricism and the sometimes furious excitement of the work. He did not hide behind the bravura notes but rather made the music his own and conveyed a genuine understanding of the piece. Since that memorable concerto I have heard Parker once more live with the Edmonton Symphony and several more times on CBC radio. At each hearing my initial impressions are confirmed: here is an artist truly in touch with his musical ideas, expressing them with conviction, ample technical ability and discipline.

hostName = '.typepad.com'; Heart of Canada Freelance social commentary from the heart of Canada. The opinions you read on this blog reflect nobody's opinions, except my own, and even they change from time to time. Main The Giftedness of Angela Hewitt How can I possibly describe the rare beauty of Angela Hewitt's performance and talent as a pianist? When I listened to her collection of Chopin Noctures , myself having years of classical training on the piano, I was moved, not just by the musical composition, but also by the subtlety and nuance in her interpretation of the smallest detail pauses, phrasing, pedal work as each piece unfolded at her fingertips. She also wrote her own cd booklet notes, which are worth briefly excerpting here: One aspect of Chopin interpretation that I feel has been slightly neglected is the question of tempo, most evident in the Nocturnes which of course are all thought to be very slow....One day I decided to enforce the metronome markings left by Chopin for the Opp 9, 15 and 27 sets, and found much to my delight that they confirmed my suspicion. They are not meant to be all that slow. This changes the character of many of them, and for me adds far more life poetry and passion. I have only used them, however, as a confirmation of what I already felt, and not as a point of departure. On the other hand, it then seems even more important than ever to play as quietly as possible when called for. The Noctures are Chopin at his most intimate. They are secret confessions of the soul. - Angela Hewitt, Notes to

Front Page Intro Klee's CD's by Joe H. Klee The Complete Solo Piano Music of Maurice Ravel Angela Hewitt Hyperion CDA 67341/2 [138:11] If proof were needed that lightning can strike twice in the same place, consider the evidence of this fine young Canadian-born pianist. Not to take anything away from Glenn Gould, Angela Hewitt follows in his footsteps even to centering her recording career around the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. Having proven herself in that classic Baroque repertoire, as well as the contemporary music of Olivier Messaien, she now moves to one of the twin titans of the French Impressionist period, Maurice Ravel. The hits are all here in this double CD collection ... Pavanne pour une infanta defunte, Le Tombeau de Couperin, Gaspard de la nuit and Miroirs. So are the less often recorded Serenade grostesque and Prelude. Not since the historic 1951 Columbia recordings by Robert Casadesus have I heard such a comprehensive, and excellently performed, survey of Ravel's music for the solo piano. The recorded sound of the piano, a Hamburg Steinway I would guess, leaves nothing to be desired. The liner notes by Ms. Hewitt are extensive and fascinating and end with her acknowledgement of one of her teachers, Jean-Paul Sevilla. This double CD from Hyperion belongs in the collection of anyone who loves the piano music of Maurice Ravel ... regardless of how many other recordings of this music they already own.

Home Reviews Articles Festivals ... Contact Us WWW MUSICALPOINTERS Chopin Piano Music Alfredo Perl/Freddy Kempf/Angela Hewitt Opus Arte/BBC OA 0893 D [135 mins] This strange and essentially misconceived Welsh TV DVD of popular Chopin is worth considering only for Alfredo Perl 's account of the Op 28 Preludes. A well respected pianist, who gave them at the Festival Hall in London last month together with Beethoven sonatas, he alone seems at ease in front of the cameras despite near fatal presentation. The film team is more interested in "atmospheric evocative settings" and we are taken on a tour of Chateau de Neuville, the camera alighting on the piano and pianist, but rarely staying still for more than moments. Filmed over four days, the lighting varies as it would. There is no continuity; incredibly, each piece - many of them tiny - is separated from the next by a long pause during which the Opus No of the next one (not its key) is shown on a black screen. Why not simple (optional) subtitles with the information? If those had been placed at the end of the tracks, one could have skipped them with the zapper. But for all that, Perl held our attention for his undemonstrative, economical manner and poise; the easy pieces that everyone plays were especially notable for the careful weighting and voicing of every chord and harmonically significant moment, and he was the better for watching whilst listening.
