Angela Hewitt plays Bach and Brahms

Renowned for her interpretations of Bach's keyboard music, charismatic Canadian pianist Angela Hewitt performs to a sold-out St George's Bristol. Her programme builds from Bach's Partita No 6, a contrapuntal tour de force, towards Brahms’s mighty and kaleidoscopic Handel Variations.

Presented by Sarah Walker.

Recorded at St George's Bristol earlier this month.
