Part of the Skyline Piano Artist Series 

Angela Hewitt, piano

The New York Times praises pianist Angela Hewitt’s “instant link from head and heart to fingertips.” Widely considered one of the foremost Bach interpreters of our time, Hewitt appears in recital and as soloist with major orchestras throughout Europe, the Americas, Australia, and Asia. In 2020 she became the first woman to receive the City of Leipzig Bach Medal and was awarded the Wigmore Hall Gold Medal in recognition of 35 years of performances in the prestigious London chamber music venue. Conducting concertos of Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven from the piano, Hewitt has led the Toronto Symphony, Hong Kong Philharmonic, and Copenhagen Philharmonic, among many others. She was named Artist of the Year at the 2006 Gramophone Awards, Instrumentalist of the Year at the 2010 MIDEM Classical Awards at Cannes, and winner of Canada’s Governor General’s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018.
