Angela Hewitt's new album is clearly destined to become a favourite. Some of the best-known musical declarations of love across the centuries, heard in transcriptions by some of the great pianists (including Angela herself); this is simply exquisite and not to be missed.
"Hewitt's spacious, uncluttered approach revels unashamedly in the pianism while still letting the original songs sing. The real treats are Hewitt's own arrangements...In all, this beautifully recorded recital is a gift to all song-loving pianists who wrestle with the instrument's stubbornly percussive nature." BBC Music Five Stars - Instrumental Choice Sept 2021
"Sometimes this pianist can hold you at arm's length and leave you admiring but uninvolved. Here, she opens her soul. It's a very personal record in its choice of repertoire and in its execution." Gramophone
